ArvinMeritor is being honored for its exceptional support to its U.S. military employees.
The Michigan Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve chose the company to win its Pro Patria award.
ArvinMeritor stood out to the organization over 26 other Michigan-based businesses. The organization also nominated ArvinMeritor to represent the state in the national competition for the Secretary of Defense Employer Support Freedom Award.
"We're pleased the committee has recognized ArvinMeritor's efforts to support our employees who serve in the military. The real honors, however, should go directly to those brave and loyal service members who put themselves at risk day after day for our country," said Chip McClure, chairman, CEO and president.
"ArvinMeritor is proud of its long history of supporting our men and women in uniform, but we don't view it as simply an obligation. We believe it's not only the right thing to do, but it's a rewarding way to sustain and encourage them while they're serving, and to welcome them back and thank them for their service when they return."
McClure, who served as a naval officer, likes to keep in touch with the company's military employees to express the company's appreciation. The company also has a military leave program, which includes paying the difference between military pay and the employee's base salary, continued savings plan benefits and company benefits and vacation accruals while on leave.
"The Pro Patria award acknowledges ArvinMeritor's high level of support for their employees who serve in the Guard and Reserve," said Capt. Paul Ryan, chair of the Michigan ESGR Committee. "ArvinMeritor symbolizes the devotion of many Michigan companies to members of the military."
