As the construction industry gathers to mark Construction Safety Week 2024, the theme "Value Every Voice" resonates deeply, echoing the ongoing commitment to improving safety standards across the board.

In 2024, the construction industry in Ontario faces a critical challenge: increasing the participation and support of women in a traditionally male-dominated field. Despite progressive steps in recent years, women still constitute a small fraction of the workforce in construction.
