INTEGRATED INFRASTRUCTURE | E25 | Dr Natalie Galea – Human Rights in the Construction Industry.

In this episode I welcomed Dr Natalie Galea to the podcast. Natalie is Australia’s leading researcher of Human Rights in the Construction Industry. Natalie is equally informative and entertaining and generously shares a wealth of experience, facts, figures and anecdotes from the industry. In this episode we talk about: · Natalie’s three careers; Olympic Judoka, Construction Professional and PHD Researcher/Human Rights Advocate. · Why Natalie decided to leave the construction industry to study why women leave the construction industry at a higher rate and earlier than their male colleagues and her findings. · How her research evolved from Women’s rights to looking and the rights of all workers in Construction and the knock-on effect to families and lifestyle. · The work she is doing now with Roberts Co on Concord Hospital and active role she is playing in other industry forums. · The Sponsorship Program she has developed for young females in the industry that aims to create greater gender equality through their career development.
