鈥淭here are many great benefits of being a partner to the Women in Trucking Organization,鈥� said Betsy Hone, Sr. Manager 鈥� Corporate HRD. 鈥淲e have seen our employee engagement increase when we participate in activities such as the I Heart Trucking庐 Photo Contest, the 奥滨罢苍别测庐 Educational Trailer attending our employee appreciation events, and hosting 奥滨罢苍别测庐 Educational Trailer hauls.
