Produktbeschreibung
The construction industry is the largest and fast growing sector. Woman workers are more; most of these women workers migrate from rural to urban areas as they are from below poverty line. They are almost exclusively unskilled, manual and casual labourers. They work at various construction sites which are highly dangerous, with several problems such as exploitation, harassment, discrimination, unsatisfactory of work, unhealthy job relationship, lack of safety and security, unhealthy working hours, low wages, health hazards, lack of basic amenities and inadequate welfare measures and ignorance of law and welfare benefits. We can see the pitiable plight of the nursing women labourers who will be working carrying babies along with the building materials. There is lack of day care centres for their children at work sites. There is no equality of status and social justice which they deserve. To open up new door of opportunity for women in the construction; as women continue to break down barriers, their presence will continue to empower the construction industry. The scenario can be changed with the intervention of Government by implementing the proper policies strictly.
