2. Harassment

In an industry dominated by

men, it is not impossible that

sooner or later, a woman

employee gets harassed

whether they may be in the

field or the office. Surveying

more than 200 respondents

resulted in about one-third of

them claiming they

experienced harassment.

While most of the women enjoy

working in the field and love

the pay and benefits, no one

should tolerate such behavior

just because women comprise

the minority of the workforce.

Promotions and workload are

also affected as their male

counterparts receive better

treatment. Sixty percent of

women in the construction

industry complain that more

men are more likely to get

promoted than them. Fewer

hours of work are also

assigned to them, giving them

the impression that they are

weak.

Employers and unions should

be the first in line to protect

their female employees from

harassment in their workplace.
