State Department of Labor begins ‘transformative era’

ATLANTA — The Georgia Department of Labor unveiled a brand new logo and website redesign this week, marking the beginning of what Labor officials are calling a “transformative era of change” under the leadership of Labor Commissioner Bruce Thompson. The unveiling is a testament to the department’s commitment to fundamental change, modernization, and establishing a people-first culture, Labor officials said.

In tandem with the new branding, the GDOL announced the simultaneous launch of its refreshed website, dol.georgia.gov. The redesign aims to offer a more user-friendly experience, aligning with the department’s commitment to transparency, accessibility, and seamless service delivery for the people of Georgia.

“From Day 1 of my administration, the mission has been clear — to look, feel, and be different,” Thompson said in a news release. “The unveiling of the GDOL’s new logo and brand colors fulfills our promise to transform the department from the ground up.

“While there is much rebuilding to be done to earn back the respect and confidence of our communities, our work is never done. We are Labor. We don’t stop. Whether in times of prosperity or crisis, we are here for all of Georgia, delivering financial relief to hard-working citizens when they need it most.”

Since January, the department has taken decisive and proactive actions to enhance efficiency and streamline departmental operations, achieving several significant milestones, including efforts to modernize the state’s unemployment insurance system, dismantle organizational siloes, transition data to a secure, cloud-based system, and realign staff to accelerate claims processing and provide faster, more efficient service.

The modern brand identity further emphasizes the Georgia Department of Labor’s dedication to being there for all Georgians, creating an environment where workers and employers can thrive together, officials said.
