🚨 HOT OFF THE PRESS! ‼️ Werner's President & Chief Legal Officer Nathan Meisgeier joined President Trump, Cabinet officials and Werner driver and veteran Ricky Washington at the White House today with Ricky’s custom military-themed Operation Freedom truck parked right outside! In tandem with the administration's new Freedom Haulers campaign, Werner is officially committing to hire 1,400 veterans over the next year. Watch the full press conference with Nathan & Ricky's remarks here: https://bit.ly/4hAl1je Freedom Haulers is a groundbreaking federal initiative that cuts red tape, translates military driving experience into civilian CDLs and allows active-duty service members to start training before leaving the military. •Veterans and military spouses already make up 15% of Werner’s 14,000+ nationwide associates. •As Werner celebrates seven decades on the road, veterans like Ricky continue to lead as Driver Leaders and premier Road Team Captains. "We should all commit to ensuring that every veteran returning home is met not just with handshakes, hugs and applause, but with real opportunities to lead, drive and succeed." Thank you to President Trump, Secretary Duffy, Administrator Barrs and the administration for championing our military community. We can't wait to welcome 1,400 new heroes to the Werner team!
We’re proud to recognize our talented interns this #NationalInternDay. This summer, our interns immersed themselves in the business of keeping America moving, working alongside teams across the country to contribute meaningful insights and support critical initiatives. Throughout the 11-week program, they explored every facet of our operations, from business strategy and customer service to logistics and technology. They even each experienced a ride-along for a day with a Werner driver to see what it's like out on the road! This week, they capped off their experience by presenting final projects to Werner leadership, sharing thoughtful, forward-thinking ideas that reflect their dedication and growth.

Today is World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, a cause that means so much to all of us here at Werner. Because our team lives and works across North America’s highways, interstate corridors, and truck stops every day, we deeply feel our responsibility in fighting modern-day slavery. In 2024, we doubled training hours for our drivers and expanded this vital education to all office and maintenance associates. We’re also proud to collaborate with Truckers Against Trafficking and Our Rescue to protect the vulnerable. Keep an eye out on the road for our custom TAT-wrapped truck driven by Heather, and ask us about our Pathways to Freedom program to see how our customers and vendors are joining the fight.
