March is Women’s History Month - a time to celebrate the incredible ways women have shaped our society and made significant advancements socially, politically, economically and culturally. Linda Korff, a Sales Support Specialist based in Evansville, Indiana started out in the industry in 1979, working for a company that was later acquired by Airgas. She recalls manually keeping track of customer balances on record cards and charge tickets before sending them back to the home office to be keyed into the “main” computer, with invoices later being printed and mailed to customers. “This was a very male dominated business,” shares Linda. “Generally a woman's role was to answer phones and do the bookkeeping. Women in management or sales positions were just unheard of. However, we have come a long way since the 70's and 80's. I have seen women evolve into many aspects of this industry from sales, to branch managers, to VP positions and more, all the way up the corporate ladder.” Linda, thank you for your 45 years of hard work and commitment to this industry and to Airgas. We take inspiration from you and our other dedicated female associates. #WomensHistoryMonth
Diane Butchart, the Director of Business Development for Airgas Safety, recently sat down with The Welder to discuss women’s PPE, the risks women face when wearing ill-fitting equipment and how Airgas is working to create more PPE products specifically for women. We recognize that there is an unmet, growing need for PPE that properly fits and is designed to fit a woman’s body within the industry. Diane details how Airgas gained valuable women’s PPE insights from a recent internal and external survey, and how we’re using those insights to build up our own women’s PPE collection on airgas.com. Check out the full article in the link below! Our women’s PPE collection on Airgas.com is growing - check back as new products are continually being added!
