#DidYouKnow that 3% is the total percentage of women working in freight transportation.
Currently there is a huge opportunity for women to capitalize on the many jobs available in the trucking industry, such as transport trailer technician, truck mechanic, and truck driver. The industry as a whole is reporting a labour shortage largely due to aging workforce and lower percentage of young people. Of course also contributing to the shortage is the below national average of women workers in the industry.
Trucking HR Canada has developed a committee to develop an employment plan to help increase the number of women participating in the trucking industry. For the complete story, the plan of action, and other related details can be found on their website here.
