NSC Commits to Improve Quality of Life for Virginia Veterans

ATLANTA, Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- NSC, a staffing agency dedicated to connecting companies and government agencies with skilled workers in the marine, construction, and manufacturing industries, today announced it has been recognized by the Virginia Department of Veterans Services as a certified employer within the Virginia Values Veterans (V3) Program.

This accreditation is the latest milestone in NSC's enduring effort to build a better America by helping Americans become gainfully employed. Since it began placing Veterans in shipyards 20 years ago, NSC has continued to connect its clients with Veterans to increase workforce productivity and efficiency. In addition to helping Veterans support their families after they complete their military service, NSC also provides employment opportunities for active-duty personnel transitioning out of the military?through local VA Transition Assistance Programs?and active duty reservists. Through the V3 Program, NSC affirms its commitment to hire even more Veterans, military spouses, and Veteran family members in the future.

"Our enthusiasm for participating in the V3 program is twofold," said Joe Myers, chief operating officer at NSC. "Part of our civic responsibility is to support the men and women who have served this country?and Veterans are an exceptional talent pool of highly skilled workers and experienced leaders."

The V3 Program educates and trains employers on the value of Virginia military Veterans, helping employers develop and implement nationally recognized best practices in recruiting, hiring, and retaining Veterans. Over 67,000 Virginia Veterans have been hired through the program since its inception in 2012.
