In an effort to get more women into the trucking industry for good, Mar- garet Hogg, general manager of J.G. Drapeau, a family business that hauls mostly hazardous materials, invit-
ed students of MicroSkills’ Women in Transportation Program to tour the company’s terminal on March 11.
The day’s purpose was two-fold, ac- cording to Hogg.
The first was to give the women a first-hand look into the everyday job duties of a typical commercial driver.
“I want to really show them what they can expect when they say they want to be a driver,” Hogg said. “And I want them to know how much safety goes into the job.”
During the visit to the terminal the
students were shown what exactly is required during a pre-trip. They also got to climb up into the truck and look around the office and observe other jobs within the industry, like dispatch.
The second purpose of the day was a chance for Hogg to practice her men- toring skills.
“I had mentors when I first started in the industry and now I want to be the mentor,” she said. “I know we’re not a large carrier and we’re very fam- ily-oriented but I want to be there for (women) and support them and let them know that being a woman, they have just as much skill as a man does. I want to let them know it’s a good in- dustry to work in.”
J.G. Drapeau currently employs just one female driver but Hogg says it is actively looking to recruit more.
