More Than One Thousand Contractors Unite to Promote Inclusion in the Construction Industry During the Inaugural Construction Inclusion Week: October 18-22, 2021
November 01, 2021
Construction Inclusion Week invites every member of the construction industry to unite to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion. The resources will enable construction companies of all sizes to plan targeted activities for their organization and trade partners. By working together, learning from one another, and being consistent in commitments and actions towards maintaining a safe and inclusive work environment - free of harassment, hate, or bigotry of any kind - Construction Inclusion Week will encourage a positive change in the industry for generations of workers to come.
Organized by Time for Change, a consortium of six general contractors, the collaboration's goal is to identify ways to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion in the construction industry. The shared effort by Gilbane Building Company, DPR Construction, Turner Construction Company, Mortenson, McCarthy, and Clark Construction Group resulted in organizing an industry-wide Construction Inclusion Week with affiliated partners Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), Associated General Contractors (AGC), and Culture of Care.
