POLARIS RECEIVES THE 2022 ACHIEVEMENT OF EXCELLENCE FOR WOMEN IN THE WORKPLACE
While attending the annual Trucking HR Canada Gala to accept our Top Fleet Employer Award, we were ecstatic to learn that Polaris was also selected for the prestigious Achievement of Excellence for Women in the Workplace!
Every year, Trucking HR Canada recognizes one Top Fleet Employer who demonstrates exceptional commitment to gender equality and female representation in our industry.

Today, more than 50% of our management team is represented by women.
Polaris President & CEO, Dave Cox comments, “At Polaris, we celebrate every employee’s unique strengths. We greatly value Geri and all the women on our team who continue to make a significant impact on our company’s growth and future!”
