Trimac has maintained its reputation as a top company for women to work for in transportation as deemed by Women in Trucking (WIT).<\/a> The coveted award is the fourth time Trimac has been named with this incredible honour, having won it since the award\u2019s inception in 2018.

\u00ab\u00a0As a company that is proud of its more than 75 years, this is an incredible distinction,\u00a0\u00bb said Virginia Shanks, Director of Recruitment at Trimac.

\u00ab\u00a0We’re proud of our history, safety values, and culture embracing diversity,\u00a0\u00bb she said. \u00ab\u00a0Knowing that we won this award is a tribute to the cultural excellence, employee engagement, and leadership training we offer\u2014as well as the many opportunities for women that are found here.\u00a0\u00bb

With more than 14,000 votes cast by the industry, Trimac is one of only 100 fleets to receive the recognition. Redefining the Road magazine, the official magazine of WIT, created the award to promote the accomplishments of companies that are focused on the employment of women in the trucking industry.

\u00ab\u00a0As women rise through the ranks in the transportation industry, we are excited to feature the companies that make the extra effort to attract and retain a more gender-diverse workforce,\u00a0\u00bb said Ellen Voie, president and CEO of WIT. \u00ab\u00a0We applaud their efforts and this distinction is our way of giving them the recognition they deserve.\u00a0\u00bb

The list of recipients is comprised of a diverse range of business sectors in the commercial freight transportation marketplace, including motor carriers, third-party logistics companies, and original equipment manufacturers. To be recognized, fleets must exude positive characteristics in areas such as corporate cultures that foster gender diversity; competitive compensation and benefits; flexible hours and work requirements; professional development opportunities; and career advancement opportunities.

After the nomination period ended, applicants are carefully reviewed to ensure they qualify by meeting a minimum threshold of qualifications. Then, the final ballot of companies is voted on by individuals in the industry.

Companies will be recognized in person at the WIT Accelerate Conference & Expo<\/a> in Dallas, Texas, Nov. 7 to 9.

Congratulations to all the other companies that received this recognition, and to the women of Trimac who make us so proud each day!<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":""},"class_list":["post-3220","news-releases","type-news-releases","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trimac.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-releases\/3220","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trimac.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-releases"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trimac.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news-releases"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trimac.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3220"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
