PNC was named a recipient of the Secretary of Defense Employer Support Freedom Award in recognition of its exceptional commitment to employees serving in the Guard or Reserve. The award is the highest honor given by the U.S. Department of Defense.
Each year since 1996, a select group of companies receive the recognition for providing support to service members and their families that goes beyond what the federal law requires. PNC is one of 15 winners this year, chosen from among nearly 2,900 nominations submitted by Guard and Reserve members.
“It is a privilege to have veterans and military families working for PNC throughout Maryland and it is truly an honor to receive this prestigious award,” said Jennifer Joseph, PNC senior vice president and market executive on the Eastern Shore. “We take pride in our commitment to those who serve, which starts with actively recruiting military reservists and veterans, and retaining them through professional development, mentoring and networking groups. In addition, PNC provides support during deployment and while transitioning to the workforce upon returning home.”
