Herc Rentals is honored to be selected as a 4-Star Employer in the 2025 VETS Indexes Employer Awards. This is the second consecutive year we’ve received this accolade from VETS Indexes as we work to support our military and veterans.
The U.S.-specific VETS Indexes Employer Awards recognize our company’s dedication to recruiting, hiring, retaining, developing, and supporting veterans and the military-connected community.

Nearly 350 organizations — a record-breaking number of applicants — participated in the VETS Indexes Employer Awards. Herc Rentals stood out among the honorees across different levels. These awards highlight organizations that exhibit a strong commitment to veterans, National Guard and Reserve members, and military spouses.
“Supporting our veterans and military service members continues to be a priority of Herc Rentals, and we’re proud those efforts have not gone unnoticed by individuals and organizations in the military community,” said Mark Arell, Vice President of Talent and Organization Development at Herc Rentals. “Veterans make up nearly 8% of our workforce, and we’re committed to providing extensive training and resources to help veterans transition their military experience into successful civilian careers.”
The VETS Indexes Employer Awards evaluate organizations based on a comprehensive survey covering approximately 300 metrics related to veteran-related policies and practices. Herc Rentals’ recognition as a 4-Star Employer reflects our ongoing dedication to hiring veterans and facilitating their long-term career growth by leveraging the diverse skill sets acquired through military service.
“We thank our veterans and military service members who contribute many unique skills, perspectives and experiences that are invaluable to our organization’s success, regardless of any awards,” said Arell. “However, we’re excited that Herc Rentals’ award as a VETS Indexes 4-Star Employer affirms the effectiveness of our initiatives aimed at providing veterans and service members comprehensive support and opportunities for career advancement.”
