PLOVER, Wis. — The Women In Trucking Association (WIT) has named 55 companies to the 2022 list of “Top Companies for Women to Work For in Transportation,” according to the association’s Redefining the Road publication.
The award was created in 2018 as part of WIT’s mission “to promote the accomplishments of companies that are focused on the employment of women in the trucking industry,” said Ellen Voie, president and CEO of WIT.
This year’s list, announced Oct. 31, includes motor carriers, industry service providers, OEM manufacturers, third-party logistics companies, CDL training providers and more.
Brian Everett, publisher of Redefining the Road, said companies recognized on the annual list display several important characteristics including corporate cultures that foster gender diversity; competitive compensation and benefits; flexible hours and work requirements; professional development opportunities; and career advancement opportunities.
“These corporate attributes are essential to any successful enterprise that is serious about gender diversity,” Everett said, adding that all companies nominated for the list are carefully reviewed to ensure they meet the qualifications; then industry members vote to determine the final list.
“This is the fifth year of this prestigious recognition program, and it garnered a record number of more than 22,000 votes to identify and validate the final companies named to the list,” he said.
