Women's Employment Rate in the Logistics Sector Rises to 11.2% in 2024

WiLAT’s “Women Drivers Project” aims to identify, train, and support female driver candidates. At the project’s launch meeting, Berna Akyıldız, CILT Turkey President and WiLAT founding president, stated, “As a global institution, CILT, under the leadership of WiLAT, has been working intensively for the past three years to increase female employment in Turkey’s logistics sector and raise awareness among companies in this field.

While this growth is encouraging, female employment in our sector remains very low, primarily because the proportion of women among blue-collar workers is much lower.”
