With construction in our country booming, I explain how women can achieve status in our construction industry across the US and Canada.
The experience of a young adult trying to figure out what they want to do for employment or education can be overwhelming. My book will give them insight to what it means to be a carpenter. And the progress unions have made in discrimination.
Our unions are harmed to the very core when a member is harassed or discriminated against by other members, supervisors, or co-workers. I speak of all in my book.
If union members cannot count on another member or their leadership, then who can they count on?
My book explains the hurdles as a woman I experienced becoming a carpenter in the 1970’s. It is a little easier today, but not that much. Discrimination still exists!
