The construction industry is incredibly important to USG and a viable career path for many, but especially women. There are many opportunities that are open to women in construction, and USG is proud to observe Women in Construction Week from March 5-11 and show their appreciation for the women who have taken the bold step to enter the construction industry, and to encourage those willing to make similar career moves.
In 1998, Women in Construction Week was introduced by the National Association of Women in Construction as a celebration of women in a male-dominated industry. Through this week of recognition and the efforts of the association, many more women have taken the step into this industry that offers a range of fulfilling careers and opportunities.
