During March, International Women’s Month, we are highlighting female students who are studying a trade at the Career and Technical Institute. The demand for these skilled, reliable, high paying jobs is high and expected to increase.
“We prioritize building a more diverse workforce,” said Sean McGarvey, president of North America’s Building Trade Union. “This includes our full support of gender equality today. There is no gender wage gap in the building trades. When you work under a building trades’ collective bargaining agreement, everyone gets paid equally no matter their gender.”
