U.S. Secretary of Labor Martin J. Walsh recognized Cognovi Labs as one of the 849 recipients of the 2021 HIRE Vets Medallion Award during a virtual award ceremony presented by the U.S. Department of Labor. The Honoring Investments in Recruiting and Employing American Military Veterans Act (HIRE Vets Act) Medallion Program is the only federal award program that recognizes employers who successfully recruit, hire and retain veterans.
"Our mission to provide solutions that positively impact not just our clients but society as a whole extends far beyond the workplace," said Beni Gradwohl, Ph.D., Co-Founder & CEO of Cognovi Labs and Cognovi Government Services. "We are committed to giving back to our communities by supporting our veterans and others that stand on the front lines to create a safer and more secure world for everyone."
Recipients of the 2021 HIRE Vets Medallion Award meet rigorous employment and veteran integration assistance criteria, including veteran hiring and retention percentages; availability of veteran-specific resources; leadership programming for veterans; dedicated human resource efforts; pay compensation, and tuition assistance programs for veterans. More than 1,400 employers have earned a HIRE Vets Medallion Award since 2018.
