IT Professional Carolina Trades Code for Tiles, Advocates for Women in Construction
Madrid, Spain – Carolina, a 23-year veteran in the IT sector, has embarked on a new career path, transitioning into the construction industry. Her story highlights a growing movement to integrate more women into traditionally male-dominated fields. Carolina, who recently completed a 'Tilers in Action' course, has already secured her first project: a tiling job in a Madrid establishment. Speaking about her career shift, Carolina expressed her enthusiasm for construction, a passion she has nurtured through personal renovation projects. "Women, not having a profession, tend to look towards more traditionally feminine professions like nursing, hairdressing, aesthetics... and we miss out on the world of construction where you get paid very well," she stated. She emphasized that there are no limitations for women to pursue these roles, noting that a tiler can earn 100 euros a day, significantly more than some traditionally female-dominated jobs. The 'Tilers in Action' program, which Carolina attended, aims to provide women with the technical skills needed to excel in construction. "It is fundamental that we, from the female world, see construction as a work possibility, which until now has been more dedicated to the masculine gender," Carolina explained. She further added, "There are tools that can do the harder parts of the job, we have no biological limitations to be able to do it." The initiative encourages both men and women to become more technically proficient in construction, stressing the importance of correct techniques. "I believe that everyone should get technical training, and especially women should include themselves in the construction labor market," Carolina urged. Her journey serves as an inspiration for others considering a change and looking to break through occupational stereotypes.
