RHA recognised by Women in Transport in their Equity Index Report

11 Mar 2024 Posted By Joe Scotting

The RHA has been recognised by Women in Transport for its equity in the workplace.

Women in Transport released its Equity Index 2023 today (Monday 11 March). The report looked at factors such as pay equality, career development and representative leadership and more.

The index shows that despite efforts by organisations, much more can be done in the transport sector overall to improve gender equality.

The RHA was presented with a certificate by Women in Transport alongside other industry leaders in equity.

RHA HR Director Laura Taylor said, “We are thrilled to announce our recognition in the Women in Transport's Equity Index Report, marking a significant step in the right direction towards achieving gender equity within the RHA.

“While we acknowledge the journey ahead in embracing Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in our industry is a long one, we are fortunate to collaborate with organisations like Women in Transport, and inspirational figures such as Jo Major to help us on our journey.

“The foundation of progress lies in robust, actionable data, and for this, we thank Women in Transport and Sue Terpilowski for their hard work on the Equity Index Report. We strongly encourage all our members to explore this report and participate in the Index for 2024, as we collectively drive towards a more equitable future.”

Women in Transport is a not-for-profit organisation that seeks to maximise gender equality in transport. More information about Women in Transport can be found HERE
