BLUE PILING TECHNOLOGY

By Judy Penz Sheluk
Quarter 1 2014, page 21

Honourable Mention #4
HEAVY CRIME
Equipment theft in Canada is an ongoing,
expensive problem for companies
By Kelly Gray
Issue 3 2012, page 56
Why I chose this article:
I didn’t think that the theft of huge pieces of heavy machinery
was all that prevalent, but it’s an issue that’s been
haunting the construction industry for a long time. This
article offers tips to protect your company against the theft
of your assets.
Honourable Mention #5
ATTRACTING MORE WOMEN
TO THE TRADES
Women Building Futures is fully committed to training women
for lucrative careers in the construction industry
By Lisa Kopochinski
Quarter 2 2013, page 50
Why I chose this article:
Diversity and inclusion are topics that are extremely important
to me, and seeing women succeed in non-traditional
fields is a huge starting point. As worker shortages loom
into the future, having more qualified workers in construction
can only be a good thing. Attracting women to the trades
also offers women the opportunity to have a fulfilling career
and strengthens the backbone of the Canadian economy. A
number of Piling Canada readers take part in the Women
Building Futures program; I highly encourage more of you to
check it out, and let me know how it goes!
