WIT will NOT fulfill requests of providing copies of the nominations after submissions. It’s highly recommended that the nominator maintain a record of the nomination. (Suggestion: Develop the nomination in a Word document using the criteria above, and then copy/paste the responses into the online form. This way you retain a complete nomination for your records).

Nominations will be accepted through Friday, May 10, 2024.

The U.S. $595 Nomination Fee covers processing of the nomination and, if accepted to the list, a beautiful customized glass plaque that identifies your company as a 2024 "Top Company for Women to Work in Transportation," the licensing rights to use the 2024 logo in your promotion of earning this prestigious recognition, and access to WIT's Press Kit.

WIT regularly publishes the WIT Index, the official industry barometer to measure the percentage of women who are professional drivers, in corporate positions, and serve on boards of directors in our industry.

The percentage of females in your workforce is a direct reflection of the importance you place on gender diversity and creating a positive professional environment in which women thrive. These percentages involving gender diversity is a key indicator on whether or not your organization is, in fact, a company where women want to work. If you do not participate in the WIT Index, your organization will automatically be disqualified. (IMPORTANT NOTE: Participation in the WIT Index is open year-round so make sure to participate prior to submitting your nomination as a Top Company). Learn More

Early June. Please note: the voting portion carries a lot of weight on whether your company is chosen as a winner, so be sure to communicate this process and share the voting link to ensure your workforce, business partners, and other key stakeholders vote.

WIT predominantly looks at three factors – all of which are part of the nomination process:

1. Features that make your company a good place for women to work
2. Brief Description of why your organization should be recognized as a Top Company
3. Percentages of women in various roles (as indicated in the WIT Index survey – note that your individual percentages will NEVER be shared publicly, but only reported as an aggregate percentage among the hundreds of participating companies).

The editorial team of Redefining the Road magazine ensures all factors meet an acceptable standard and threshold.

Those who make the list will be notified by email by early August.

No. If accepted to the list, the U.S. $595 Nomination Fee covers the licensing package, which includes a beautiful customized glass plaque, licensing rights to use the 2024 logo, access to the interactive and print magazine, and WIT's Press Kit. 

A press release announcement will be distributed late October. No announcements from the winners can be made before the embargo date WIT will provide.

Winning companies will be recognized at WIT's Accelerate! Conference & Expo during a special awards program (where your appointed company representative will accept your award). This will take place Nov. 10-13 at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, TX.
