BONITA SPRINGS, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Herc Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: HRI), one of North America’s leading equipment rental suppliers, has been recognized by two distinguished programs for its ongoing commitment to creating career opportunities for military veterans and active service members.

For the eleventh consecutive year, Herc Rentals has been named a Military Friendly® Employer, receiving the Gold designation for the fourth year in a row and ranking among the Military Friendly® Top 10 Employers for the second time. The company also achieved its fifth Military Friendly® Spouse Employer designation. Military Friendly® evaluates organizations on their commitment, effort and success in creating sustainable and meaningful benefits for the military community.
