Women in Construction Week used to give me major imposter syndrome vibes.   I'm not a person who works on the job site. Never have been. I've always been an advocate and feel like an awestruck tourist when I'm on a job site. Honestly, I am insanely jealous of those of who possess the skills to be doing the physical work.   But I matter to construction, especially to women in construction. Using my voice to advocate for the ladies I meet, share their stories, validate their importance, and create traction for their continued success is where I find my stance as a woman for construction.   So I celebrate Women in Construction Week by being a woman for construction. The workforce story is starting to change, but there is still so much work to be done. Here are a few of my favorite follows for women making an impact on the construction industry. Please tag the women who are inspiring you in construction!   Kate Rieling: Project Manager at Catamount Constructors and President of Crew Collaborative.   Jennifer Todd M.L.S..: Owner at LMS General Contractors and A Greener Tomorrow. Abbie Raudabaugh: PM & Estimator at Flannery Construction and President of the Twin Cities National Association of Women in Construction chapter.

The construction industry has been traditionally seen as a male-dominated field, with women only constituting a small fraction of the workforce. However, the world is changing rapidly, and there is a growing recognition of the importance of diversity and inclusivity in all sectors, including construction. Empowering the next generation of women in construction is a matter of equality and a strategic move to address the industry's skills shortage and foster innovation.

Construction is the most male-dominated major industry in Australia, with the Australian Constructors Association reporting that, “only 12 per cent of the construction industry’s workforce in Australia are women.” Despite this low percentage, a positive fact in this area is that the number of Australian female construction apprentices has more than doubled from 2010 - 2020. With International Women’s Day being this month, we wanted to highlight some women-run construction programs and organisations that work to support and help women entering or working in the construction industry: 1. Women Building Australia - Women Building Australia  Women Building Australia is a joint program between Master Builders Australia and the Australian Government that attracts and supports women working in the building and construction industry. Their primary goal is to attract the best workers, regardless of gender, by promoting the opportunities for women and employers and the information and support they need. 2. Build Like a Girl - Build Like A Girl  Build Like a Girl is a not-for-profit organisation run by women that provides contacts, job opportunities, connections, advice, and support to women wanting apprenticeships or to become a tradie. They mentor and provide networks for women to develop in their trade by working with trading organisations, industry bodies, unions, employers, and governments.  3. Awesome Women in Construction - AWIC - Awesome Women in Construction  Awesome Women in Construction is a not-for-profit association that provides personal and professional development, a positive community, and confidence-building opportunities to women working in the construction industry. By advocating against discrimination, educating the next generation, and amplifying the voices of women, they have helped hundreds of women across the construction industry. We hope to see many more organisations like this in the industry continue to empower women in construction and grow the female participation rate.
