- Why are more female electricians not entering the industry?

At a National Level there are the various large infrastructure projects happening across Australia which will result in a high demand for trades in general and electricians in particular. The total value of projects I've identified adds up to $86.29 billion nationally (happy to share this, just message me). This will require lots of electricians servicing this upcoming need. If this seems distant given the current COVID-19 situation - this will pass and in the next 5-7 years this situation will change, with the mad scramble for electricians a certainty. Yet only 50% of the overall population (males) actively consider this as a trade to "actively" enter into. With 50% of the population (females) not considering this as a trade to "actively" get into - is it any wonder there is a shortage which is unfulfilled? Even as the situation is changing, only 20% of the demographics is female, so a lot more needs to be done. Listen to this podcast of how Rachael Ryan views this industry and what can be done to improve this situation for the better.
