The WIT Index is the industry barometer to regularly benchmark and measure the percentage of women who make up critical roles in transportation:
Conducted biennially, the WIT Index is a fundamental report that will help to amplify the brand, reputation, and value of the association to the industry and to the North American economy. For-hire trucking companies, private fleets, asset-based third-party logistics companies (3PLs), drayage companies, and other associations report their percentage of professional drivers who are women. These companies along with other market segments in transportation (such as technology innovators, equipment manufacturers, railroads and ocean carriers also report their percentage of leadership and functional roles that are female.
Please note: Participating in the 2026-27 WIT Index is a requirement for this year's Top Companies for Women to Work in Trucking nomination process.
