Jovian Concepts is Recognized with 2024 Platinum HIRE Vets Medallion Award

October 31, 2024-- U.S. Acting Secretary of Labor Julie A. Su awards Jovian Concepts the 2024 Platinum HIRE Vets Medallion for recruiting, employing, and retaining our nation's veterans. One of 839 recipients during a virtual award ceremony presented by U. S. Department of Labor, this marks the fourth consecutive year Jovian Concepts is recognized, and the first year earning the Platinum level. Says Jovian Concepts president Richard Scheper, Ph. D., "We're very proud of this recognition because it reflects the efforts our employees have put into being a welcoming place for veterans. When we started our SkillBridge Program and, more recently, our internal Veterans Connect resource group, our current veteran employees used this question as a guidepost: 'What do I wish I had known or had available when I first joined this industry?' It's that ongoing reflection and commitment that makes a big difference in what kind of culture we have at Jovian Concepts."


Jovian Concepts earned a Platinum Award in 2024 from 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. Like the other award recipients from across the United States, Jovian Concepts is not only committed to hiring veterans, but also to ensuring that they have long-term career and growth plans that use the diverse skills they acquired through their military service.

Recipients of the 2024 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, and tuition assistance programs. More than 1600 employers have earned a HIRE Vets Medallion Award since 2019.
