We take immense pride in supporting our associates who are veterans or currently serve in the military. Averitt has been recognized as a “Patriotic Employer” by the U.S. Department of Defense and has received recognition from the Tennessee Department of Veterans of Foreign Wars as Employer of the Year. We’ve also been designated as a Top 10 Military Friendly ® Employer by Viqtory Media and a U.S. Army Reserve Private Public Partner. Given that roughly 13% of Averitt associates are veterans, we’re particularly proud of these achievements. We also believe that veterans possess skills and traits that align perfectly with our values – including motivation, self-discipline, professionalism, and leadership. That’s why we actively recruit veterans, offering career opportunities in roles such as driver, leadership, mechanic, dock associate, and more. We also accommodate military leave for National Guard and other military branch members. By providing meaningful career opportunities and recognizing the unique strengths of military veterans, we integrate their valuable skills into our workforce, while at the same time supporting our nation’s heroes.
