More than 1,100 construction industry firms have signed up to participate on www.constructioninclusionweek.com. They have access to materials and resources that help foster conversations and bring awareness to diversity, equity, and inclusion. The resources enable construction companies of all sizes to plan targeted activities for their organization and trade partners. By working together, learning from one another, and being consistent in commitments and actions towards maintaining a safe and inclusive work environment–free of harassment, hate, or bigotry of any kind – Construction Inclusion Week will encourage a positive change in the industry for generations of workers to come. During Construction Inclusion Week, Turner will hold site-wide events and toolbox talks during the week to discuss Leadership Commitment and Accountability for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Unconscious Bias, Supplier Diversity, Jobsite Culture, and Community Engagement.
