The Women In Trucking Association (WIT) welcomes United Parcel Service (UPS) as its newest Gold Level Partner, furthering its mission to empower more women to pursue careers in transportation. Trina Norman, Southern California feeder operations manager and WIT’s 2022 Influential Woman in Trucking, will serve on the Board of Directors.

This year, the company was a Platinum Sponsor of WIT’s Accelerate! Conference & Expo held in Dallas, TX Nov. 13-16 and virtually Dec. 6-7, and was a participant in the event’s Truck & Technology Tour.

“UPS is honored to be a Gold Level Partner and to serve on the Women in Trucking Board of Directors,” said Norman. “The future looks bright for women in the trucking industry and we are dedicated to helping this association advance gender diversity, inspire more women to consider the trucking industry as a career, and celebrate the success of women behind the wheel.”

“UPS’ commitment and support is a powerful affirmation to the industry that the advancement of diversity and inclusion in the workplace matters,” said Jennifer Hedrick, president and CEO of WIT. “Their partnership will have a valuable and immediate impact on furthering our association’s mission and influence.”
