The Home Builder - October 2022

THE HOME BUILDER Page Eight Dallas BA’s first-ever Associates Trivia Night was a huge success!

October 2022

The number of women working in the con - struction industry across the country edged only slightly higher last year, rising to 11% of the overall construction workforce from 10.9% in 2020, according to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Most women in the industry remain involved in office and administrative positions, with less than 4% involved in the skilled trades, where workers are sorely needed. There are encouraging signs for the future, especially in Collin College’s Construction Man - agement program. Women comprise 22% of this year’s freshman class, double the national rate. These women will soon be supervising job sites around the Metroplex for some of the largest residential and commercial construction operators.
