Tradeswomen Network

The Builders Code team has been guided along the way by a powerful and outspoken network of more than 125 tradeswomen who helped review key materials, concepts, and approaches prior to their completion. These advisers represent more than 30 different construction trades and work in every region of BC.  They are Apprentices, Red Seals, Business Owners, mentors, and mavericks.  A big shout out to the BC Tradeswomen’s Society for letting their members know about this advisory opportunity: more than 100 participants in our virtual Tradeswomen Network are also members of the BC Tradeswomen’s Society.
One of the most significant contributions this network has made to the Builders Code so far is the emphasis on gender neutrality, to shift the focus from women to the workforce overall.

Together, we’re building a construction industry that works for everyone.

Resources for Tradeswomen

The Builders Code is intended to support all tradespeople by giving construction employers tools to manage their worksites to fullest standards of safety and productivity.  We are not a direct resource for tradespeople who are seeking advice on how to respond to hazing, harassment, and bullying that may be happening to them.  If you experience discrimination on the jobsite, we encourage you to research your company’s employer policies and then speak to your manager or business representative.   Here are some other resources that are available specifically to assist tradespeople:

BC Association of Clinical Counsellors

BCCWITT

BC Law Society

BC Legal Aid

BC Tradeswomen Society

British Columbia Indigenous Cultural Safety Training

Centre for Mental Health and Addictions
