Abstract:The lack of workforce diversity has made it challenging for transportation agencies to incorporate resiliency into their long-term plans effectively. This project developed a framework for creating an inclusive and functional workforce environment for transportation agencies in the southeast region. The project identifies existing gaps, predicts future needs, and captures the role transportation agencies, research centers, Departments of Transportations (DOTs), and professional organizations can play to recruit, train, and maintain a diverse and inclusive workforce. This research will ultimately contribute to creating a resilient transportation workforce structure in the southeast region. The goal of this project is to present an Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) -focused framework for promoting diversity and inclusion within the workforce.
