NETIZEN EARNS 5th CONSECUTIVE FEDERAL AWARD FOR MILITARY VETERAN HIRING AND SUPPORT

Allentown, PA: Netizen Corporation, an ISO 27001:2013, ISO 9001:2015, and CMMI Level 3 certified provider of cybersecurity and related solutions for defense, government and commercial markets, has for the fifth year in a row received a HIRE Vets Platinum Medallion award from the U.S. Department of Labor for the hiring, retention, support and training of military veterans and families. This level of award is given only to select companies demonstrating superior commitments to veteran employment and the military/veteran community. Netizen employs a significant percentage of veterans while providing free training, college scholarships, and paid internships to help veterans and military families obtain careers in high-demand technical fields such as cybersecurity.

The HIRE Vets Medallion program was established under the Honoring Investments in Recruiting and Employing American Military Veterans (HIRE Vets) Act signed into law on May 5, 2017 to recognize employers who hire, retain and support military veterans. The Platinum Medallion is the highest level of award a company can receive for this program and the citation states that “[Netizen] has demonstrated a model of patriotism worthy of praise as well as a recognition of the value veterans bring to the workplace.”

“Netizen is proud to employ a significant portion of military veterans. We acknowledge the diverse array of skills, talents, and backgrounds that this provides us with as a company. Such diversity of thought and experience is truly something that sets us apart while also providing fellow military veterans and families with opportunities for learning and advancement,” said Michael Hawkins, Netizen’s CEO and a U.S. Army veteran.
