(asked on 27th October 2021) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the number of women working in the HGV industry.
This question was answered on 4th November 2021
Industry estimates suggest that women make up around 14% of the total logistics industry workforce. The Office for National Statistics Annual Population Survey suggests that around 4,000 HGV drivers are women but that the sample is too small for a reliable estimate of a percentage of the total workforce.
