Werner Enterprises, Inc (Nasdaq: WERN), a leader in transportation and logistics services, is proud to announce that it has been named one of the Top Companies for Women to Work in Transportation by the Women in Trucking (WIT) Association. This prestigious recognition, which appears in Redefining the Road magazine, marks the eighth consecutive year Werner has received this honor.
The award highlights organizations that excel in creating inclusive work environments that support the growth of women through competitive pay, benefits, professional development, career advancement opportunities, and flexible work arrangements. The final rankings were determined based on over 21,000 votes from professionals within the industry.
“We’re incredibly honored to be recognized again as a leading company for women in transportation,” said Nathan Meisgeier, President and Chief Legal Officer of Werner Enterprises. “With women now representing 16% of our driver workforce—significantly higher than the national average—we’re committed to maintaining a culture where women can thrive in a variety of roles, whether that’s on the road, in the garage, or in the office.”
Werner Enterprises continues to advocate for women’s advancement in the transportation industry through both internal and external initiatives. The Women’s Leadership Alliance (WLA), founded in 2011, offers resources for professional development, networking, and mentorship to women at all stages of their careers.
In addition, Werner works to enhance female representation and engagement in the industry through outreach programs like the Road Team Captains, Operation Freedom Drivers, and Driver Ambassadors. Werner’s leadership commitment extends beyond the company’s internal operations, as Jaime Hamm, Senior Vice President of Safety and Recruiting, chairs the American Trucking Associations (ATA) Safety Policy Committee, helping shape critical industry policies related to safety and best practices.
