Voluntary Self-Identification of Veteran Status
This employer is 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:
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
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 USERRA—the 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.

If you are a disabled veteran it would assist us if you tell us whether there are accommodations we
could make that would enable you 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

adverse treatment. The information provided will be used only in ways that are not inconsistent with
the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended.
4. 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 informed, when and to the
extent appropriate, if you have a condition that might require emergency treatment; and (iii)
Government officials engaged in enforcing laws administered by the Office of Federal Contract
Compliance Programs, or enforcing the Americans with Disabilities Act, may be informed.
