Only 17% of transport workers are women. This waste of human talent hinders the sector from overcoming its skill shortages. It also undermines efforts to make transport more sustainable, innovative and inclusive. This study tackles this issue head-on: “Gender imbalance in the transport sector: a toolkit for change” identifies five key action areas and provides good practice examples on inclusive recruitment, retention and career development. It covers all transport modes. The work complements the more policy-focused ITF Gender Analysis Toolkit for Transport, launched at the last ITF Summit, to provide practical solutions to promote the role of women in the sector.
