The construction industry has a long history of underrepresenting women, and achieving gender equality remains a challenge we are committed to addressing. At Powell Contracting, we advocate for the equal rights of women in construction, recognizing their valuable contributions and achievements. We encourage others to join us in promoting gender equity within the industry by fostering opportunities and cultivating a culture of inclusion. By supporting women through mentorship, leadership roles, and fair compensation, we are paving the way for a more diverse and equitable future in construction. #WomenInConstruction #ConstructionIndustry

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a time to pay respect to individuals who have been impacted by this injustice and to acknowledge the generational damage that residential schools inflicted on Indigenous families and communities. It's also a time to recognize the broader process of reconciliation with Indigenous communities to reflect on the systemic injustices faced by Indigenous peoples and take meaningful action toward healing and rebuilding relationships. #TruthAndReconciliation #IndigenousRights

The gender pay gap in Canada is a persistent issue that impacts people across industries, with women earning approximately 84 cents for every dollar men make in median hourly wages. Despite some progress, it’s projected to take 169 years to close the global economic gender gap at current rates. At Powell, we are committed to supporting pay equity. We believe in fair compensation for all our employees. Learn more here: https://ow.ly/E7l350Tfti0 #PayEquity #InternationalEqualPayDay
