What makes a company desirable for women to work? Many say it comes from such primary reasons as a corporate culture that’s supportive of gender diversity, flexibility in hours and work requirements to accommodate family and life balance, competitive compensation and benefits, training and continued professional development, and career advancement opportunities.
If your organization is one that features these benefits (or more), then it could be an ideal nominee for “Top Companies for Women to Work for in Transportation.” This is the fifth year this program will be featured in Redefining the Road, the official magazine of the Women In Trucking Association, with the goal to highlight companies in the industry that are friendly for women in BOTH professional driver and corporate capacities.
It’s highly recommended that the nominator maintain a record of the nomination, as WIT will NOT fulfill requests of providing copies of the nominations after submissions. (Suggestion: Develop the nomination in a Word document using the fields above, and then copy/paste the responses into the online form. This way you retain a complete nomination for your records).
Voting closes Sunday, July 3.
(Note: Your organization must generate a minimum of U.S. $5 million in gross global sales and be a corporate member of the Women In Trucking Association - join here. In addition, you as the nominator must be an authorized representative to nominate your organization).
Explain in 75 words or less what makes your company worthy of being recognized as a great place for women to work. Also be prepared to indicate if the nominated organization demonstrates any or all of the above characteristics.
The voting portion of this nomination carries a lot of weight on whether your company is chosen as a winner. The industry vote takes place in early June, so be sure to communicate this process and share the voting link to ensure your workforce, business partners, and other key stakeholders votes.
Winning companies will be recognized at WIT's Accelerate! Conference & Expo during a special awards program and featured in the cover story of the Redefining the Road magazine (Edition 3 2022).
