Worthington Enterprises is again a four-star employer in the 2025 VETS Indexes. This is the second consecutive year Worthington earned this distinction recognizing organizations for their commitment to recruiting, hiring, retaining, developing and supporting veterans and the military community.

“Worthington Enterprises has demonstrated exceptional support for veterans and the military-connected community, earning the organization one of the most prestigious awards possible in the VETS Indexes Employer Awards program,” said George Altman, president of VETS Indexes. “Even as more organizations than ever before are recognizing the uniquely valuable skills that veterans bring as employees, the efforts of Worthington Enterprises to recruit, retain, develop, and support those who served, as well as their families, stand out from the pack. Worthington Enterprises is among the very best veteran employers, and its program can serve as a model for others.”

VETS Indexes evaluated a record number of 349 submissions for this award and honored 294 organizations. Judges analyzed companies on their policies, practices and outcomes across recruiting and hiring, development and retention, veteran-inclusive policies and culture, spouse/family support and support for members of the National Guard and Reserves.

Jeff Buchanan, paint technician, Columbus facility, Worthington Enterprises, said, “Worthington is a great company for veterans because the Company understands that a veteran’s job title doesn't always match the responsibilities that you had while serving. Knowing this and leveraging the SkillBridge program, Worthington Enterprises encourages the lessons and leadership learned in the military to be used and helps you achieve the next level in your chosen career.”

Helping the Veteran community is a passion of mine and Worthington has helped me feed that passion and actively encourages me to do what I can to help our veterans.  One of the things I like about working for Worthington is how they give back to the community but aren’t boastful about it.
