Nystrom Honored as LockLeed's 2020 Employer of the Year

Minneapolis, MN: Commercial building products manufacturer Nystrom, Inc. was presented with the 2020 Employer of the Year Award by LockLeed International for its efforts in hiring military talent.

Founded in 1948, today CEO Sue W. Thomas, leads 190 manufacturing and business support employees. The company is true to its five core values (profitable growth, lead by example, customer first, raise the bar and balance), which is supported by recruiting dependable, conscientious, distinguished employees.

“It’s a privilege to work with a military organization like LockLeed, and we are honored to be presented this award” said Susan Aaker, Senior Human Resources Director. “The 3% of our workforce that are veterans bring invaluable life experience, skills and leadership to the company. They give the same commitment and dedication to the success and growth of our company as they did in service to our country. We look forward to increasing the number of military employees through our partnership with LockLeed in the years to come.”

Here is what John Henka had to say, USMC and Founder of LockLeed.

“Employment is probably the top priority after health during the transition home out of the Military. There are over 1 Million current unemployed Veterans and another 1 Million separating from the armed forces over the next 5 years. Nystrom has stepped up and supported Veterans and continues to invest heavily in improving their team by recruiting in the Veteran community.”

• Unlimited job postings on LockLeed’s Job Board
