Leveling Up Every Day: Women in Construction

Every year during Women in Construction Week™ (March 1–7), industry leaders join the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) in celebrating the vital role women play in building the world around us.

At Shockey, we believe that support for women in construction shouldn’t be limited to one week a year; it’s a mission we champion every day.

Construction is a field built on collaboration, skill, and innovation. At Shockey, we know that cultivating a diverse workforce makes us stronger — and that means actively encouraging women to pursue roles across the industry. As an equal opportunity employer, we look for the best of the best.

We recruit and welcome qualified candidates, regardless of gender, into rewarding construction careers throughout our organization.

We’re proud to foster an environment where women thrive at every stage of their construction careers. While Women in Construction Week™ gives us a moment to reflect and celebrate, our commitment continues year-round. We believe in building strong teams where women feel valued, supported, and empowered to contribute at every level. Together, we’re not only constructing buildings — we’re building a more inclusive and thriving future for the industry. Click on the video below to learn more.
