The awards, Queensland T&L Industry Future Award and T&L Future Leaders Award, have been developed by the Supply Chain and Logistics Association of Australia in conjunction with the Australian Logistics Council, APICS, CIPSA and the Queensland Transport Industry Capability Unit.
Queensland T&L Industry Futures Award
The Queensland T&L Industry Futures Award, sponsored by EsSCO, will be awarded to the company, institution or organisation with the best proven record in providing people with an entry to, and pathway in, the transport, supply chain & logistics industries.
The T&L Industry Futures Award includes education or training, implementing flexible work practices, workforce development and support in career progression.
EsSCO managing director Liam Stitt said: “By identifying leading organisations that are going above and beyond the norm to engage people in our industry is an ideal way to help others understand how to deal with this issue.
“The younger generation must be encouraged and supported as they take over for the future, and what better way to do this than by supporting such a wonderful initiative as the T&L Awards program.”
To be eligible for the award, companies must be Queensland-based and should provide the details of the project implemented in the past 12 months, results and prospects of the initiative.
T&L Future Leaders Award
The T&L Future Leaders Award, sponsored by Queensland Transport, will provide incentive and recognition for individuals working in transport, supply chain & logistics industries that are planning a career path within the Industry.
