Women in Construction Pledge

by | Feb 25, 2022 | Company News

Everyone within construction has a part to play in ensuring the future of our industry – for Gray & Sons, we believe that taking action to promote women in construction will help to shape that future 👷‍♀️✨
 
We have signed a pledge, to support the Women in Construction initiative, created by National Federation of Builders (NFB) and Marketing Michaela Wain – the initiative is the start of a change from what is a highly stereotypical, male dominated industry, to a place where women and girls can equally thrive and succeed without bias. As a company, we are committing to encouraging more women into construction and ensuring the values of our business enable this aim.
 
As well as our pledge, we are supporting one of our own employees Bluebell Owen to achieve her ‘ILM Level 5 Women in Construction – Leading with Integrity’ qualification. We look forward to seeing Bluebell progress though the course and subsequently putting the skills & knowledge she will have gained into action. We recognise empowering our staff is vital to the continued growth and success of the business and we are looking forward to Bluebell becoming an even more important part of our team.
