建筑业是美国最大的就业机会提供者之一,正面临着劳动力短缺的严重问题。研究人员已经认识到一个关键问题,即代表性不足的人口群体对建筑,工程和建筑(AEC)行业的兴趣不足和持续参与不足。为了解决劳动力收入不平等和偏见的问题,该行业必须能够了解目前的不平等状况,并找出一些基本问题。为了满足这一需求,本研究分析了目前建筑劳动力的种族/民族和性别的不平等。研究的初步结果表明,白色建筑工人平均比非洲裔美国人多16.2倍,比西班牙裔美国人多3.6倍,非洲裔美国人是建筑工人中人数最少的。此外,研究表明,在抽样年份,建筑业劳动力中的男性平均收入比女性高4.2%。我们的趋势分析表明,与就业人数和每周收入中位数有关的这些差距没有变化。
The construction industry, one of the largest job providers in the U.S., is suffering from critical problems pertaining to labor shortage in the workforce. The researchers have recognized as a critical issue an insufficient interest and poorly sustained participation in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry by underrepresented demographic groups. To address the issue of workforce income inequality and bias, the industry must be able to understand the current situation regarding inequality and pinpoint some of the basic problems. To address this need, this study analyzes current inequality within the construction workforce by race/ethnicity and gender. The preliminary results of the study show that White construction workers are, in average, 16.2 times more than African Americans and 3.6 times more than Hispanics in average, African Americans being the least in number in the construction workforce. Also, the study shows that men in construction workforce, on average, earn 4.2% more than women in the years sampled. Our trend analysis shows that these gaps relating to the number of employed personnel and median weekly earnings did not change.
