Time to put the wolf whistles away
In the week that the Chartered Institute of Building has produced
an authoritative report on sexism in the construction industry,
Backbites has received this picture from a work clothes
manufacturer.
Admittedly, it's not as bad as the old days of semi or fully naked
women draped over construction machinery. But the three chirpy
chappies ogling the woman in her new dress and the spooky guy at
the back are hardly PC. With the Latham team and the CIoB working
to improve the image of building, it is time for everyone to do
their bit.
