Howmet Aerospace Supports Veterans
We recognize that all veterans have put their lives, their careers, and their stability on the line to protect the freedoms we enjoy every day. That commitment extends beyond the active-duty service member(s) who served, and deep into each family who takes part in service. We believe that they deserve our best support as they make the transition back into civilian life. This includes:
- Understanding the many transferable skills they bring
- By assisting with and recognize that moving from military jargon to corporate language can be challenging
- By placing high value on their personal accountability, reliability, and results orientation they bring from their service experience
- And by providing comradeship and support within our Veteran Employee Resource Group
