Celebrating women in the Ontario building industry for International Women’s Day
Joyanne Beckett, OBOA President & Manager, Building Division, City of Kitchener
It’s International Women’s Day and what better way to celebrate than to honour building officials from across Ontario, who are the top of their game in a rapidly growing industry.
More and more women are choosing to enter the building industry, bringing strong skills to help foster the safety, sustainability and accessibility of Ontario homes and buildings. As the province prepares to build more homes, the need for building officials becomes paramount and I’m proud to be working in an industry alongside these talented women.
