Veterans Resources

How Wyndham Supports the Guard and Reserve

At Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, we fully recognize, honor and comply with the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA). We appreciate the values, leadership and unique skills Service members bring to the workforce and will continue to encourage opportunities to employ Guardsmen, Reservists, transitioning Service members and Veterans. We believe it is important to celebrate, recognize and support our U.S. Service members and their families in peace, in crisis and in war. To foster an inclusive environment, all managers and supervisors have access to tools needed to help effectively manage those team members who serve in the Guard and Reserve.

 

 




SALUTES Affinity Business Group

Recognize. Support. Honor. Serve.

SALUTES is one of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts affinity business groups, where team members come together to ensure we stay committed as a veteran friendly organization. SALUTES provides support to veterans through mentoring, identification of work opportunities and engagement in community projects amongst our company team members, hotels and in our communities.

(Team Wyndham pays tribute to America's military community in a variety of ways, including participation in Carry The Load events.)

(Team members gather during the second annual SALUTES Memorial Day Military Summit in Parsippany, N.J.)

SALUTES Takes Action by:

  • Hosting military summits throughout the year where team members honor our military with a full day of engaging speakers and resources to share Wyndham’s commitment to the military
  • Continued involvement in several military races, donations to JBWS Backpacks for Life, Treats for Troops and Holiday Giving Initiative
  • Partnering with and supporting many military organizations, including Hope For The Warriors, Carry the Load and Fisher House Foundation




Hiring Our Heroes

Since 2018, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts continues to be a proud partner of Hiring Our Heroes, helping empower veterans, military spouses, and transitioning service members to find meaningful employment opportunities. We are committed to curating meaningful opportunities through our work with the MSEAC National Advisory Council and VEAC Veteran Employment Advisory Council, to establish best practices for veteran and military spouse employment.

Wyndham also sponsors, and is an active employer partner, for AMPLIFY, an intensive two-day workshop that leads a cohort of military spouses through intensive career preparation, professional development and networking. 



Wyndham Rewards & Military Partners

Over the past several years, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has held an annual Wyndham Rewards Million Point Challenge, encouraging Wyndham Rewards members to contribute points to military-related partner organizations throughout the month of November, for which Wyndham then matches up to one million points. Partner organizations in past years have included Fisher House Foundation, Operation Homefront, Hope for The Warriors, and Armed Services YMCA.
