I believe there are no jobs in the roofing industry that cannot be handled by a woman. I also believe that the leadership in this industry needs to embrace this notion or we may never lift our way out of the labor shortages plaguing roofing contractors from one end of this country to the other.
This idea also requires women to see themselves in some very non-traditional roles. But if I’ve ever seen a win-win, bringing women into the trade, at all levels, would be very good for the roofing industry and very good for the women who join us.
