Building Enclosure's Editor Lindsay Lewis and Building Enclosure’s Publisher Jill Bloom got to chat with USGBC’s Senior Vice President of Marketing, Communications and Advocacy, Taryn Holowka. Recently, USGBC conducted a “Women in the Workplace” survey that revealed women across the green building industry are facing historic challenges in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis.

Of nearly 500 women surveyed, 86 percent are feeling supported by employers, yet nearly 90 percent note they are still facing challenges when it comes to financial, familial and professional responsibilities.

 

Join us as Taryn discusses what this means for women and the green building industry. Also, be sure to check out our coronavirus coverage page for additional information on the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
