Women in Construction
In Her Own Words
Improving Project Outcomes
To go beyond the numbers and statistics that are typically presented in research about women in construction, NCCER met with 176 tradeswomen and analyzed survey responses from 770 women in construction. Our goal was to highlight the unique benefits women bring to the construction craft workforce, the obstacles they encounter getting in and staying in the industry, and their advice on what contractors can do to recruit and retain more women in the craft workforce.

Building Better: A Women In Construction Study is a collaborative effort between Ambition Theory and NCCER to provide data-driven insights and practical tools to companies in the construction industry to increase opportunities for women and create a more inclusive workplace. This study aims to empower companies to take action and drive real change by addressing the challenges and barriers faced by women in the construction industry.
