Phelan Construction recruit and promote women in the workplace because of the strengths they bring to the construction industry.
Despite women comprising over 50% of the UK population, only 11% make up the construction workforce.
To tackle this on numerous levels, we have launched our ambitious and long-standing ‘Women in Construction’ initiative. This involves conducting internal reviews and building strategies to support, mentor, hire and encourage the women within our organisation. It also means working actively with young girls throughout their education; whether that’s school trips to live sites or providing female mentors for our junior staff. Our careers brochure showcases visuals of both men and women and aims to inspire young girls to see the myriad ways in which construction can be a financially rewarding and engaging industry to work in.
