Women in Construction Week Highlights
The Port of Seattle is proud to celebrate Women in Construction Week (March 1-7) again this year by highlighting four incredible women and their journeys to excellence in construction-related fields.
Women in Construction Week, or WIC Week®, was started in 1960 as a nationwide initiative that promotes the important role of women in the construction industry.
These women span the Port’s maritime division and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) and are the epitome of the Port’s RAISE values: Respect, Anti-racism and equity, Integrity, Stewardship, and Excellence. They represent the knowledge they brought with them, gained in their roles, and spread to others. The path was not a straight line for any of these women and typically isn’t for women in construction. They were driven by the love of problem solving and collaborating for a greater good.
