'If you see a female co-worker doing well whether it's on a project or just in general, acknowledge it, and make sure you let the right people know. Some women don't celebrate their successes enough.' - Jessica Berry, Brand Manager at Terrace #HIAWABuildingWomen #HIAmember

Extending start times for #HomeBuilder + #buildingbonus will help relieve skills shortages in WA noted by the RBA. The β€œsharp rebound” in WA #residentialbuilding β€œhas been such that some...are reporting that in some skill areas they are finding it hard to find labour” #perthnews

Policy makers can’t wait til next year to make the call on this. The risks of schemes’ start times are safety for workers, the sustainability for jobs & that some consumers won’t get their grants due to factors beyond the builders’ control. bit.ly/2RQccox #perthnews
