OPM Releases Strategic Plan on Veterans Employment
January 29, 2010The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) released a government wide Strategic Plan to increase support and access for Veterans seeking employment with the Federal government. The plan is part of President Obama's Veterans Employment Initiative, a pragmatic, straightforward approach to helping the men and women who have served our country in the military find employment as civilians in the Federal Government. "This is America's first strategic blueprint to increase and support the hiring of Veterans throughout the Federal workforce," said OPM Director John Berry. "This plan aggressively dismantles barriers for Veterans seeking Federal employment. Additionally, it provides ongoing career support to Veterans working within the Federal workforce and specifically looks to support new veterans as they adjust to civilian work life." Full release.
