The following invitation to self-identify your veteran status is made pursuant to Section 4212.

The GI encourages and welcomes you to identify if you have a disability to be counted and support the company’s diversity and inclusion efforts. Ensuring that everyone has an equal employment opportunity (EEO) is the law, and as a federal contractor GI must invite applicants and employees to voluntarily identify if they have a disability. Beyond legal requirements, though, GI encourages applicants and employees to self-identify because it helps the company track its diversity and inclusion (D&I) progress and assess if changes need to be made.


The information is collected and securely maintained by human resources, and an employee’s supervisor and coworkers will never be notified. The information will never be associated with an employee’s personnel file or be accessible by anyone except select HR team members for D&I and EEO purposes only. Your answer will have no impact on hiring decisions.
