Overview: The Equal Opportunities Commission has identified a major source of skills that can help out the construction, engineering and IT sectors - women. Employers in the construction, engineering, IT and plumbing industries need to recruit more women if they are to overcome critical skills shortages.

To do this, these industries will need to improve their recruitment and retention practices and address their image problems with the next generation of workers.
