Global Lifting Awareness Day 2025 – “Lifting Careers, Building Futures”

On 12 June 2025, the lifting industry unites once again to mark Global Lifting Awareness Day (GLAD), an initiative led by the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA). This year’s theme, “Lifting Careers, Building Futures,” places a spotlight on the critical need to address the growing skills shortage across the sector, while highlighting the many rewarding career paths available in the industry.

The Importance of GLAD 2025

The lifting and rigging industry plays a fundamental role in various sectors, including infrastructure, logistics, energy, and construction. However, the challenge of attracting and retaining skilled professionals has become more pressing than ever. GLAD 2025 aims to support employers in their recruitment and training efforts, while also inspiring individuals to consider a career in lifting through greater awareness of the industry’s impact and opportunities.

This year’s campaign also encourages a more inclusive and sustainable approach to workforce development by highlighting training pathways, apprenticeships, and reskilling initiatives. By reaching out to young people, veterans, and career changers, GLAD 2025 is paving the way for a stronger and more resilient future for the industry.
