The responsible company has once again been
recognized by the Women in Trucking Association
Schneider National, Inc. (NYSE: SNDR), a premier multimodal
provider of transportation, intermodal and logistics services, has
once again earned top honors for its inclusive culture. For the
sixth consecutive year, Schneider has been named a 2024 Top Company
for Women to Work in Transportation by Redefining the Road, the
official magazine of the Women in Trucking Association (WIT).

This prestigious accolade highlights companies that foster a
corporate culture that champions women, offer competitive
compensation and benefits, and support professional development and
career advancement opportunities.
Women hold approximately 13 percent of Schneider’s driver roles,
which is nearly double the industry average, and 40 percent of
leadership positions. This year, the company also saw an increase
in the number of women diesel technicians hired in its shops across
the U.S.
“Being consistently named a Top Company for Women to Work in
Transportation is a true testament to our ongoing efforts at
Schneider to create a workplace where everyone can excel,” said
Schneider Executive Vice President of Human Resources Angela Fish.
“Schneider has made a commitment to being a responsible company
that fosters an environment where associates feel safe, supported
and empowered to share their creativity and ideas. That approach
helps all associates to thrive, and I am beyond proud of the
strides we have made and continue to make in empowering women
across all levels at the company.”
What makes this award even more significant is that it is
validated by an industry-wide vote involving over 31,000
transportation professionals, including executives, managers,
HR/talent specialists and professional drivers. Schneider stands
proudly among “The Elite 30,” the top 30 companies that garnered
the highest number of votes.
Associate Jess Martin, who joined Schneider in 2022 as a driver
recruiting specialist and has since transitioned to join the
corporate legal team as a paralegal, shared, “This is a space where
I can say what I think and feel, which is what keeps me here. It’s
nice to be at a company where diversity – not just as a woman or as
a person of color, but as an individual with a different experience
– is welcome.”
Schneider is deliberate in fostering a supportive environment
for women, offering:
- Many opportunities for career progression, training and
leadership development.
- An industry-leading mixed-gender driver training
guideline.
- Scholarships for women studying to be mechanics from the
Schneider Foundation.
Driver and U.S. Army National Guard service member Mildred
Wells-Toney, who had over 20 years of driving experience before
joining Schneider, commented, “I applied to Schneider Intermodal in
2017 when I wanted to improve my career prospects. I wasn’t looking
for Intermodal, but I love it. Schneider has a good thing going on.
I can be home every day, and I believe the safety program is good,
too.”
Additionally, Schneider’s longest standing Business Resource
Group (BRG) is its Schneider Women’s Network, which intends to
attract, develop and retain the best talent and ensure nothing
stands in the way of women growing their careers at Schneider.
