Crowley Honored for Supporting Women in Transportation

Crowley, a prominent player in maritime, energy, and logistics solutions, has garnered praise once again, being recognized as one of the top companies for women to work for in the transportation sector by the Women in Trucking Association (WIT). This accolade was featured in WIT’s official publication, _Redefining the Road_, marking Crowley's fourth consecutive year receiving such an honor.

This recognition is not merely a title; it signifies Crowley's unwavering commitment to creating an inclusive workplace that empowers its employees. The company has been proactive in implementing competitive compensation packages, comprehensive benefits, and various opportunities for professional development and career advancement. A key aspect of their approach is the establishment of employee-led business resource groups, such as 'Women Empowered.' This initiative specifically aims to facilitate a supportive environment for female employees, enhancing their professional growth and engagement within the industry.

Megan Davidson, Crowley’s Chief People Officer, expressed her excitement over the recognition, stating, "We are thrilled to once again be recognized for our progress and commitment to supporting the progression of women at Crowley through career development programs and benefits. These initiatives pave the way for our female employees to ascend into roles that significantly contribute to the company’s success."

In addition to this recent award, Crowley has been acknowledged by U.S. News and World Report as a Top Company to Work For, and it was recognized as a Top Company in Logistics and Transportation. Furthermore, the National Diversity Council lauded Crowley as a Top Employer for Latino Leaders, indicating a broad commitment to diversity across various dimensions.

With an impressive annual revenue of $3.5 billion and a workforce of around 7,000 employees, Crowley operates with a fleet of over 170 vessels, prominently within the Jones Act sector. This remarkable investment in maritime transport underlines their critical role in global trade and the economy. Over the past 130 years, the company has shown an enduring dedication to innovation and sustainability, serving customers across 36 countries and territories.

As part of its continual efforts to foster a diverse and inclusive workplace, Crowley is making significant investments in education, professional development, and initiatives that facilitate employee success.
