Werner Enterprises, Inc. (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and logistics provider, is honored to be named among the 2024 “Top Companies for Women to Work for in Transportation” by the Women in Trucking (WIT) Association’s Redefining the Road magazine. Werner has earned this recognition in all seven years it has been awarded.

WIT's Top Companies for Women to Work for in Transportation award evaluates companies based on a comprehensive survey assessing recruitment approaches, workplace culture, retention efforts and professional development opportunities. Werner was recognized for its dedication to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace where women receive the support they need to thrive. More than 30,000 transportation professionals participated in an industry-wide vote to determine the list.

"We take great pride in being recognized as a Top Company for Women for the seventh year in a row because it highlights our steadfast commitment to promoting and creating opportunities for women in the industry,” said Werner’s Chairman and CEO, Derek Leathers. “Our number of female professional drivers, 16%, is more than double the national average, and we are focused on fostering a safe and inclusive environment at all stages of their careers.”

Werner has long been a leader in advocating for women in the transportation industry, launching multiple initiatives to support their growth and success. One of these is the Women’s Leadership Alliance, founded in 2011, which provides professional development, networking opportunities and events for associates. Werner also empowers its outreach and industry representation efforts through specialized teams such as the Road Team Captains, Operation Freedom Drivers and Driver Ambassadors—comprised of both women and men. Additionally, Werner's Vice President of Safety and Compliance, Jaime Hamm, serves as Chair of the American Trucking Associations (ATA) Safety Policy Committee, where she plays a pivotal role in shaping policies to enhance industry safety and promote best practices.
