Awareness and Prevention of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment in the Trucking Industry



Published
On April 4, 2022, the Biden-Harris administration announced a Day of Action to raise awareness and advocate for the prevention of sexual assault and sexual harassment in the trucking industry. Gender-based violence undermines safety, health, well-being, economic potential and human rights. In the trucking industry, it’s also a barrier to women’s entry and retention. On the Day of Action, April 27, 2022, the Department of Labor’s Women’s Bureau convened stakeholders for a roundtable discussion to highlight potential interventions to build safe workplaces, challenge cultural norms around gender and occupation type, and encourage trauma-informed responses to reports of violence and harassment that occur in the trucking industry.
