What does this mean for the Job Seekers?
Getting a job at Lodge Lumber does not only reserve you to one aspect of the forestry product distribution. Given the many industries that the company supplies to, veterans, military spouses and/or transitioning members can benefit from a wealth of job exposures and experiences, too. Getting hired as a laborer does not box your expertise on cutting or sizing crates, for example. Your experience will depend and expand according to the customer and/or project where you are assigned to. You can make special crates for a client that belongs in a specific chemical storage company one day and learn to craft crates with different specifications and requirements for food products, the next.
Lodge Lumber has been in the business since the 1940s. For over 80 years now, their clientele has definitely accumulated. With the active promotion of their team members and the excellent reputation of the company in their field, they are sure to develop more long-lasting relationships with new partners. This reputation and excellence establishes a stable work opportunity for job seekers.

Why would Lodge Lumber want to hire Veterans?
Many veterans have experience working with heavy equipment and machinery, which can be useful for Lodge Lumber. Typically, they hire people with experience in forklifts - a skill that is not foreign to veterans. Additionally, veterans, especially the recently transitioning ones - are still ripe in their physique. Belonging in the forestry production industry may require the ability to manage and lift heavy machineries or items. Military exercise will definitely come in handy in this physical requirement.
Moreover, a large number of veterans have experience in logistics and supply chain management. This background can also come in handy for Lodge Lumber because they also cater to the transportation and distribution of their lumber products. But the most important of the reasons is veterans have been trained to contribute positively to a team-based environment. This characteristic is particularly important for lumber and wood processing facilities because the tasks in this industry require coordination and communication for teams to operate efficiently and safely.
