AAR earns 2025 Military Friendly® Employer and Spouse Employer designations
Wood Dale, Illinois — AAR CORP. (NYSE: AIR), a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, announced today that it has earned the 2025 Military Friendly® Gold Employer designation and Military Friendly® Spouse Employer designation.
Institutions earning the Military Friendly® designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. More than 1,200 companies participated in the Military Friendly® survey.
Methodology, criteria, and weightings were determined by VIQTORY with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the military recruitment community. Final ratings were determined by combining an organization’s survey score with an assessment of the organization’s ability to meet thresholds for recruitment, new hire retention, employee turnover, and promotion and advancement of veterans and military employees.
“AAR is honored to once again be recognized as a Military Friendly® Gold Employer and Military Friendly® Spouse Employer,” said John M. Holmes, AAR’s Chairman, President and CEO. “Members of the military embody AAR’s ‘Find a way. Every day.’ value and exemplify courage and commitment to a mission. We are grateful for their service to our country and our Company.”
“Organizations earning the Military Friendly® Employers designation have wholeheartedly invested in comprehensive and impactful initiatives that bring about positive, life-changing results for our valued service members, dedicated military spouses, and esteemed veterans within their ranks. We salute these exemplary employers who raise the bar and understand that hiring military personnel is not merely an act of goodwill but a testament to a standard that truly embodies sound business wisdom. Their commitment to integrating military personnel into their workforce not only reflects their compassion but also underscores their business acumen,” said Kayla Lopez, Senior Director of Partnerships at Military Friendly®.
AAR will be showcased among the 2025 Military Friendly® Employers in the Winter issue of G.I. Jobs® magazine and on MilitaryFriendly.com, where a full list of 2025 Military Friendly® Employers is available.
Earlier this month, AAR also earned recognition from Military Times as a Best for Vets employer, which ranks companies based on their policies, practices, and benefits for veterans and their families. Additional information is available here.
