About The Labor Hall of Fame The Labor Hall of Fame honors posthumously those Americans whose distinctive contributions to the field of labor have enhanced the quality of life of millions yesterday, today, and for generations to come. Elevation to the Labor Hall of Fame is arrived at by a selection panel composed of the Chief of Staff to the Secretary, the Solicitor of Labor, the Assistant Secretary for Policy and the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management. Honorees are chosen each year, and a formal induction ceremony is conducted at the U.S. Department of Labor in Washington, D.C. The Labor Hall of Fame is located in the the North Plaza of the U.S. Department of Labor's Frances Perkins Building, 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. The most recent honorees are represented by a kiosk containing a portrait, photos and memorabilia. Copies of the portraits have been used for the "Honorees" area of this website, and were painted by Dana Van Horn and Donald Gates. The exhibit is open during government working hours.
