The staggering statistics are presented again, and again; 26% of the current PHCP/PVF industry workforce is women, yet the total available workforce consists of more than 50% women. ASA has traditionally represented an industry dominated by men, which is why the Women in Industry Division serves a critical role for the future and fills a much needed gap.
The American Supply Association is working on many levels to help attract new employees into this industry. Due to that, ASA Women in Industry (ASA WII) Division’s primary mission is to provide practical guidance, direction and education to assist women currently employed in or considering employment in the PHCP/PVF industry reach their professional and personal goals. By doing so, ASA member companies can attract, retain and promote qualified and educated women for long-term sustainability. As the fastest growing division within the association, we’ve clearly hit a cord.
