For Construction Dive, which covers the nonresidential
commercial construction industry, this article looks at why
contractors should care about inclusion initiatives and rooting
out racism on jobsites. The industry has seen a number of
incidents involving nooses or hate speech on jobsites this year.
Why should construction executives and managers care about
rooting out racism on their jobsites? How does racism and a less
inclusionary environment impact safety in construction? How does
racism and a less inclusionary environment impact productivity,
and ultimately, profits? How are owners and developers looking
at this issue? How is it impacting the choice of contractors
they do business with? Why are we seeing acts of racism on
jobsites now? What steps can architecture, engineering and
construction firms take to combat racism in the industry? I'd
like to speak with construction executives and consultants,
safety experts and academics about why we're seeing these
incidents now, and how they impact a company's bottom line.
