Investing in uniforms designed for women, finding ways to bring flexibility into workforce planning, preparing your existing workforce for the introduction of female participants... These are a few of the practical steps employers can take to #InspireInclusion and encourage more women to enter the transport and logistics industry. This International Women’s Day, the United Nations calls us to invest in women to accelerate progress. To explore this theme, we caught up with Qube multi-combination driver and women in trucking advocate, Lyndal Denny, to ask what employers can do to attract more women to the industry, and to make the women who work in the industry feel more included. Lyndal has driven heavy vehicles for Qube for 10 years and is also the CEO of Women in Trucking Australia, an organisation helping women realise their truck-driving ambitions by linking them with employers. She challenges transport employers to take on more female drivers. And with less than 3 percent of the truck driving workforce identifying as female, there is much room to move. #InternationalWomensDay #InvestinWomen

Love this! Great work Qube & Lyndal Denny! It's important to highlight these stories so women's participation in the industry is completely normalised.
