The report intends to investigate, account for and analyze problematic behaviors that occur and women's experiences in the construction industry, as well as to report on what construction companies can do to attract more women to the construction industry.As many know, the construction industry is a male-dominated workplace with few women in Sweden, but also around the world. Through a literature study, various scientific articles, journals and articles on the subject were analyzed. From the analysis, it can be seen that a major problem in the construction industry is the rooted macho culture that contributes to, among other things, discrimination and sexual harassment. Furthermore, it can also be seen that this has a major impact on how women are treated and how construction sites are not shaped for women.In conclusion, it turns out that there are plans and ideas on how to attract more women and young girls in the future to the construction industry.
