Jump start Australia’s economy with
female trade skilled workers and apprentices.
To drive Australia’s economic recovery and find the tradespeople we need, Empowered Women In Trades (EWIT) platforms enable women to thrive in viable industry employment pathways and connect them to like-minded businesses and people.
Women only hold 1 out of 100 industry trades apprenticeships.
Female representation in trades is only 3%.
47% have left or thinking of leaving. The percentage of female tradies that have left of thinking about leaving due to lack of respect/ harassment.
In 2018, 8 out of 9 construction trades were found to be in national shortage.
Our team works from many locations and we acknowledge the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
EWIT is a proudly inclusive organisation and an ally of LGBTIQ+ community and the movement toward equality.
