This year's theme is "Many Paths, One Mission." The NAWIC's goal for 2023 is "to celebrate the different journeys women have taken toward the same goal: strengthening and amplifying the success of women in the construction industry."

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, "In 2021, women accounted for 11% of the construction labor force." That's approximately 1,186,000 women that, if not outfitted in properly fitting PPE, could be exposed to increased dangers on the job. 

One Size Does Not Fit All

The demand for women's apparel that fits properly and meets their unique needs is on the rise. Offering a woman a garment designed to fit a man doesn't cut it, and we're taking steps to make sure women on construction jobs have PPE that keeps them comfortable, but more importantly, safe.
