An Act relative to public hiring preference for veterans, peace corps, americorps and commonwealth corps workers

This bill requires Massachusetts state agencies to create a program identifying and recruiting military veterans and alumni of the Peace Corps, AmeriCorps, and the Commonwealth Corps for non-civil service public jobs. It directs the human resources division to provide agencies with certificates confirming a candidate's eligibility in these categories. The program aims to help agencies hire, develop, promote, and retain these individuals through formal recruitment efforts. The bill affects state agencies hiring in non-civil service positions and directly benefits eligible veterans and service program alumni.
