In celebration of Women in Construction Week, the OCP Cleveland team held a valuable panel and luncheon with the women from the skilled labor team and office at the Cleveland corporate office.

The goal was to learn more about their work in the field and for them to have the opportunity to provide direct feedback on their experience on the job sites. The luncheon was also a time to celebrate the power of women in the construction workforce.

The feedback from the Cleveland luncheon was that their overall experience was very positive and they would like to feature their individual volunteer efforts and industry events with one another. The team also greatly appreciates the consistent work that OCP provides.

The mission of Women in Construction (WIC) Week is to further the success of women within the industry and emphasize the growing role of women within the industry. WIC Week highlights women as an integral component of the construction industry, and encourages others to recognize construction as a viable, profitable career field.

Women in Construction week is about empowering our current female workforce, opening the doors for the future women of construction, and diversifying our workforce to increase our labor pool and advance the industry as a whole.
