Werner Receives 2023 ATA Change Leader Award

Werner Enterprises (Nasdaq: WERN), a premier transportation and logistics provider, proudly received the 2023 American Trucking Association’s (ATA) Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Change Leader Award.

Established in 2022, this award highlights ATA members who make a commitment to a culture of acceptance and belonging for their employees. The goal of the award is to encourage innovation that supports continued improvement in the industry’s longstanding commitment to equal opportunity. The ATA currently has a membership of more than 35,000 companies and eight industry leaders received recognition for their efforts.

"It’s a great honor receiving this recognition from the ATA because we take pride in fostering an inclusive workplace that encourages all associates to bring their whole self to work,” said Werner’s Chairman, President and CEO, Derek Leathers. “Inclusion serves as one of our core values here at Werner where we understand diversity contributes to innovation and connects us to the many communities we serve.”

Werner creates a culture of inclusion by offering a variety of programs that make a difference. For example, associates are invited to join one or more Associate Resource Groups to strengthen their sense of belonging and create meaningful connections within the Werner community. Associates can also volunteer in the company’s ‘Blue Brigade,’ serving a diverse set of communities across the nation.

Members of Werner’s leadership team accepted the award on October 17 during the ATA’s Management Conference and Exhibition in Austin, Texas. To learn more about more about Werner’s DEI initiatives, visit here.
