Why the industry needs more women in landscaping and what we can do about It
Carla Bailey oversees all operations of HR at TLC Landscaping, located in London, Ontario. TLC Landscaping has been the premier stop for both multi-residential clients and design-build clients in London for over 30 years. Before that, Carla was a sitting member on the board at the Landscape Ontario London Chapter. She is a founding member of Women in Landscaping and has been a significant advocate and voice to reduce the barrier to entry for women in landscaping.
In this episode of the podcast, Carla and Stanley talk about all things related to women in landscaping. What we need to do as an industry, what associations could be doing better, and encourage the next generation landscaper to be more inclusive. They chat about everything from boot sizing, clothes, pee breaks, recruiting and retaining women employees, and where a landscape industry newcomer should go if they want to get involved.
Both Stanley and Carla seem surprised that this is still an issue in landscaping as we move into the year 2021, but certainly, some common themes raise to the surface as the two of them dive deep on HOW and what the industry can do to recruit more women landscapers.
