With Steamatic Canada, women succeed in the construction industry

Gatineau, March 8, 2024 – In honour of International Women’s Day, Steamatic Canada President Nancy Raymond wishes to reiterate that women have their place in the construction industry.

The theme for International Women’s Day 2024 is “Invest in women: Accelerate progress.” It’s a reminder that gender equality is one of the most effective ways of building healthier, more inclusive communities.

With some forty franchises across the country, Steamatic Canada hires hundreds of women, many of whom hold leadership positions within franchises or are in decision-making roles. Over the past five years, Steamatic’s recruitment of female employees has increased by more than 50%. Some are administrative professionals, but many are project managers, technicians and workers.

“At Steamatic, we take pride in having women who engage directly with our clients, not only in handling and managing cases but also in leading franchise operations. Our work environment is safe and allows for incredible development,” said Ms. Raymond, emphasizing that Steamatic Canada is driven by the desire to increase the number of women in its workforce in the coming years, while ensuring their retention and professional development.

Last February, Ms. Raymond took part in the Sommet Atypique, organized by Option Femmes, which aims to highlight non-traditional professions for women by offering a unique, hands-on experience. Ms. Raymond was invited to take part in a panel discussion on the theme of “Leadership au féminin”.
