Voluntary Self-Identification of Veterans
As a Government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended by the Jobs for
Veterans Act of 2002, 38 U.S.C. 4212
(VEVRAA), which requires Government contractors to take affirmative action to employ and
advance in employment: (1) disabled veterans; (2) recently separated veterans; (3) active duty wartime or campaign badge veterans;
and (4) Armed Forces service medal veterans. These classifications are defined as follows:
A “disabled veteran” is one of the following:
o a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of
military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or
o a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.
A “recently separated veteran” means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's
discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.
An “active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran” means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military,
ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized
under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.
An “Armed forces service medal veteran” means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground,
naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded
pursuant to Executive Order 12985
.
Protected veterans may have additional rights under USERRAthe Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act.
In particular, if you were absent from employment in order to perform service in the uniformed service, you may be entitled to be
reemployed by your employer in the position you would have obtained with reasonable certainty if not for the absence due to service.
For more information, call the U.S. Department of Labor's Veterans Employment and Training Service (VETS), toll-free, at 1-866-4-
USA-DOL.
As a Government contractor subject to VEVRAA, we are required to submit a report to the United States Department of Labor each
year identifying the number of our employees belonging to each specified “protected veteran” category. If you believe you belong to
any of the categories of protected veterans listed above, please indicate by checking the appropriate box below.
I BELONG TO THE FOLLOWING CLASSIFICATIONS OF PROTECTED VETERANS (CHOOSE ALL THAT APPLY):
DISABLED VETERAN
ACTIVE WARTIME OR CAMPAIGN BADGE VETERAN

RECENTLY SEPARATED VETERAN

I am a protected veteran, but I choose not to self-identify the classifications to which I belong.

to perform the essential functions of the job, including special equipment, changes in the physical layout of the job, changes in the
way the job is customarily performed, provision of personal assistance services or other accommodations. This information will assist
us in making reasonable accommodations for your disability.

provided will be used only in ways that are not inconsistent with the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as
amended.
The information you submit will be kept confidential, except that (i) supervisors and managers may be informed regarding restrictions
on the work or duties of disabled veterans, and regarding necessary accommodations; (ii) first aid and safety personnel may be
