Forums focus on recruiting women to trucking
PLOVER, Wis. – The Women in Trucking Association has helped organize two free online dialogues this month focused on recruitment of women for blue-collar transportation jobs.
Participants will be able to submit, comment on and rate ideas interactively with colleagues from across the country, creating a national exchange of ideas and best practices for women in blue-collar transportation careers.
Everyone, men and women, in the transportation industry are invited to participate.
July 11-15, 2011: ‘How do we best describe and promote women working in skilled, blue-collar transportation-related careers?’
July 25-29, 2011: ‘How do we leverage existing programs that promote recruitment and hiring of women working in transportation-related trades?’ and ‘What ideas, suggestions, or strategies do you have for retaining and advancing women’s talent within your industry?’
