Gender diversity in the transport industry | Interview with Lauren Bourke

from Byte Size · host Compass IOT

Did you know that women only make up 16.9% of all roles in the transport sector? That includes all drivers, admin, and office roles. It's no secret that the transport industry has long been dominated by men. New data is helping shed light on the severity of the imbalance we are facing, and the tangible benefits to a business' bottom line of addressing it. In celebration of NSW Womens Week (8th -14th March, 2021) Emily sat down with Lauren Bourke, the National Transport Manager at Randstad, to discuss the findings of their December 2020 Women in Transport report, detail practical advice for businesses to increase gender diversity, and the misconceptions surrounding women-at-work.  Link to download the full report: https://www.randstad.com.au/employers/areas-of-expertise/industrial-manufacturing/women-in-transport-report/
