#738 – 24 - Safety Corner - Updating Barriers, Updating Respect & 4 C’s of the Job Site

In this episode of Safety Corner, we tackle a topic that isn’t talked about enough but needs to be—women in construction. Representation is growing, but are job sites really set up to support and respect female tradespeople?
We dive into:
🔹 The real numbers behind women in construction—beyond the PR campaigns, what’s actually happening?
🔹 Proper toilet facilities on site—why the basics, like hygiene and accessibility, are still being overlooked.
🔹 Making sure menstrual products are readily available—because a truly inclusive job site means supporting all workers properly.
🔹 Workforce skills & retention—how can we ensure that women entering the trades stay in the trades?
🔹 The 4 C’s of construction—a deep dive into the Colorful Cast of Construction Characters you meet on every site.
This isn’t about ticking a diversity box—it’s about real change, real conversations, and real respect on site.
🎧 Tune in for a no-BS discussion on what needs to improve and how we can make construction a better place for everyone.
