Page 2 November 24 2016 Community Briefs LAWA Named Employer of the Year by Women in Transportation-Los Angeles Women in Transportation-Los Angeles (WTS) named Los Angeles World Airports as “Employer of the Year.” The award, presented at WTS’s 30th Annual Scholarship and Awards dinner November 16, recognizes LAWA’s continued efforts to support and promote a diverse and inclusive workplace, as well as outreach efforts that encourage women to pursue careers in transportation. “Hiring and cultivating a thriving diverse workforce enables all of the great things happening throughout LAWA’s airports,” said LAWA Chief Executive Officer Deborah Flint. “I am so proud of the Los Angeles World Airports staff,” said Board of Airport Commissioners Vice President Valeria Velasco. “With aggressive recruitment and outreach efforts, innovative hiring practices, and a variety of education and enrichment programs, LAWA has proven that airports can be the best place to work and can lead to a satisfying career.” Women currently serve in over 50 percent of LAWA leadership positions, from departmental managerial roles to the executive level. LAWA also provides a variety of programs that encourage women to pursue careers in transportation, including its Gender Equity Program, which strives to foster a work environment promoting equal participation of women in leadership positions at all levels, especially in historically under-represented STEM areas. Its Gateways Internship Program offers college students salaried internships while they contribute new ideas and skills to LAWA’s airports. High school students also can work at LAWA through HIRE LA’s Youth Program, introducing students to aviationbased careers through paid internships.
