Building A Career
Tradditionaly men have been working as construction workers and trades. Recently there has been discussion at a school were there has been talk about girls working as construction workers and trades. The girls have been constructing in there school grounds. They have chosen construction as a subject. Do you think they should be able to work as construction workers or trades.
Girls should have the same opportunities as boys. Why because ladies have good attention to detail and you need that in construction because if you don’t do it right it will crash and burn. Recently we need more trades people because the population is going up and we need more buildings, houses and work places. They also need more trades because not many people are choosing it any more and think it isn’t interesting.
On the other hand construction sites are dangerous work places. Mainly for girls because they could put other workers at risk.they could also have a baby and the boss might need everyone to work and she’ll have to have time off and the boss will have to pay for her while she is raising the baby.
There are clearly two sides to this issue, in my opinion i don’t think girls should work in construction sites because there not is strong and they could have babies which makes them leave. Also if your pregnant you could fall over or lose the baby.

Construction sites are dangerous for anybody, so to avoid injury people are trained to avoid injury. I’m sure girls could be trained to be safe on the site too. What doyou think?
