\u201cWe are honored to receive this award and to see the growing number of employers who recognize how valuable veterans are in the workplace,\u201d said Colby Barrett, CEO of GeoStabilization International<\/strong>. \u201cI truly believe that with every veteran hire, our company gets better. The values of the veteran community, particularly their dedication to a mission of service, are vital to the work we do. Mitigating dangerous geohazards and protecting the traveling public requires a unique set of skills and a deep level of dedication. Our veterans bring this type of work ethic to every job site, every single day. We are grateful to have them as employees.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
