Women in Trucking

The Women In Trucking Association, a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting women in the trucking industry, was founded in 2007. This podcast explores the challenges faced by women in trucking, including safety concerns, sexual harassment and a lack of female representation in leadership positions. The podcast highlights the organisation’s efforts to address these issues, such as providing safety training, advocating for safer parking options and supporting a “Hear something, say something” campaign to tackle harassment. It also discusses the organisation’s role in promoting mental and physical wellbeing for female drivers, fostering a sense of community and encouraging more women to join the industry.
