Allied Universal is committed to advancing the lives and careers of those in the communities we serve. Our relationships with our employees and our clients are at the heart of everything we do, each and every day.
That is why we created the Allied Universal Partners in Employment Program (PIE), a grassroots referral program that partners with local community-based organizations to share employment opportunities, while supporting their fundraising initiatives.
As part of the program, our goal is to work with veterans’ groups, faith-based congregations, senior organizations, and higher education institutions to hire more than 50,000 full- and part-time employees by the end of 2017.
That may sound ambitious. However the U.S. Department of Labor’s recent report cites a record 6.2 million job openings. And we’re working with the best base of local groups with access to people who may be in need of work. But how will this help build up communities? Through the program, organizations that refer their members will receive a $400 contribution for every employee hired. We think that’s a pretty good deal.
To help with this effort, we’re also holding recruitment drives in more than 25 locations nationwide. We’ll be in cities like Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Phoenix, Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Detroit, Indianapolis, Miami, New York, Philadelphia, Phoenix and Seattle. Visit www.aus.com/hiringevents for additional recruitment drive events.
