CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Oct. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Covenant Logistics Group, Inc. has been honored with the 2023 ATA Diversity Equity and Inclusion Change Leader Award. In an industry as dynamic and essential as trucking, the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be overstated. Recognizing this, the American Trucking Association (ATA) celebrated eight remarkable companies with the 2023 ATA Diversity Equity and Inclusion Change Leader Award at this year’s ATA Management Conference and Exhibition (MCE). Among the esteemed recipients, Covenant Logistics stood out for its unwavering commitment to fostering a culture of acceptance and belonging for its team members and setting the new standard for the future of trucking.

Sarah Rajtik, the ATA's Executive Vice President of Human Resources, Operations, and Industry Affairs, expressed her admiration for the honorees, saying, "Diversity is a major part of the industry's current and historical success, and the ATA Diversity Equity and Inclusion Change Leader Award recognizes ATA members who have committed to creating a culture of acceptance and belonging for their employees. I want to congratulate these companies for their efforts to foster welcoming workplace environments regardless of their companies' size or experience."

"At Covenant, we continue to make significant efforts for all our team members to feel valued and a place where we all feel like we belong," said Joey Ballard, Executive Vice President of People and Safety. "Our core values of empathy, servanthood, and virtue drive us to continue providing benefits to better our team and overall team member experience at Covenant. It was a humbling experience to accept the "Change Award" on Covenant's behalf.
