Happy International Women’s Day! 👷🏻♀️🔨✏️🪚💜
Yesterday was International Women’s Day 2026, and this year, it feels more important than ever.
Women make up less than 15% of the workforce in the construction industry and this is for a number of reasons. This kind of work can often be viewed as not ‘women’s work’ and maybe that women aren’t strong enough or capable of carrying out jobs in this sector. As well as this, safety equipment and clothing is often made and designed to fit men, making it difficult for women to access proper PPE.
But here at The Stained Leaded Glass Company, we are proud to say more than half of our staff are very capable women. So please join us in celebrating the women that make our business a great one and while you’re at it, have a look at some of our ‘women’s work’.
