Building The Future Of The Construction Industry
On June 21, Boldt made a commitment to the Department of Commerce’s Million Women in Construction Pledge. Below is what Dave Kievet, CEO and President of The Boldt Group shared on the company’s behalf at the Million Women in Construction Community Pledge Roundtable.
“Thank you for the opportunity to participate in today’s Women in the Trades Roundtable, and even more importantly, to sign the Million Women in Construction Community Pledge.
“We at The Boldt Group recognize the importance of women at every level of our organization, from our leadership team to our skilled tradespeople. I am proud to sign the Million Women in Construction Community Pledge on behalf of The Boldt Group. It is an easy “yes” for us to support as it aligns with our values as well as our intentional efforts to hire diverse employees and seek diverse voices.
“And yet, the work continues. We are rooted in a mindset of continuous improvement. As such, Boldt will continue to build on women’s access to training, jobs and leadership coaching; scale our equitable hiring and workforce development efforts; adopt more best practices and support women in a safe, healthy and respectful workplace in alignment with the pledge. Your pledge asks for bold steps to ensure a robust and diverse workforce. Boldt’s long-standing Building Boldly mind-set includes our commitment to working diligently to ensure the next generation of skilled laborers and leaders includes significant women representation.”
