Republic Services’ SheDrives Campaign Recruits More Female Drivers in the Waste Industry (2019 Case Study)
With the waste industry being traditionally male-dominated (especially in the front-line operations) and female drivers being exceptionally rare, Republic Services launched the SheDrives campaign to re-associate the driver role and, ultimately the Republic brand, with women. The end result was a year-over-year increase in the number of women hired into this position. For its SheDrives campaign, Republic Services was honored with a Gold Award for Best Recruitment Marketing and Employer Branding Program in the 2019 Brandon Hall Group HCM Excellence Awards.
