Hundreds of USAA employees moved from their desks to active duty for a day, living the life of a military recruit and taking part in some basic training.
A press release states Zero Day PT is designed for employees to put themselves in the place of those who they serve as they do their jobs, by being put through the paces of a simulated first day of basic training.
The drills are the culmination of weeks of preparation, as many if not all of the employees took part in both extensive training and safety briefings. The event was created by a group of USAA employees 15 years ago and since then more than 5,500 employees have participated. “They just have to understand what our military members go through and then it helps them understand, so they can serve our members better,” Mike Kelly, USAA’s vice president of Military Affairs, said.And not only is the event about personal success, but USAA said Zero Day PT raised money for others.to raise both awareness and support for veteran suicide prevention.
