CSR
We have created an uncommon approach for reaching into the military community.
Rather than the usual appeal to “hire veterans,” the SALUTE program aims to touch constituencies such as military spouses, disabled veterans, and even active-duty personnel who want to earn extra income.
Traditional veterans are, of course, welcome to participate but the employment and training opportunities extend to the broader armed services family.
As for our family, UnifyCX has been a business process outsourcing company, or BPO, for nearly 20 years. We are based in the US, with additional offices in India and the Dominican Republic, and we are growing. As the Uncle Sam posters used to say, “we need you!”
The SALUTE Difference
What makes this program unique is RemoteAbility™, the key to unlocking geographic and logistical barriers to employment. This approach also makes work portable, meaning that an employee whose family is transferred can take the job with them, too, along with the furniture and everything else. This is especially important to military spouses who enjoy working but whose areers can be impacted by the disruption of periodic changes of duty station. With SALUTE, that is no longer an issue.
Why SALUTE?
A salute is a gesture of respect and acknowledgement. We hope to provide a measure of both with above-market wages in a growing industry plus employment that includes a career path. We have a 95% employee retention rate; in other words, people choose to stay with UnifyCX, and we take great pride in promoting from within. Our home state of Kentucky includes five military installations including two major Army posts – Fort Campbell and Fort Knox. That has given us an appreciation of the challenges military families face in balancing service and home, in adapting to new cities, reacclimating to civilian life, or living with a disability. The SALUTE initiative provides a pathway for people in every step of their military journey.
