<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->I RECENTLY completed a Building Construction Supervisors Safety Course and contacted at least seven companies to ask about vacancies as site supervisors or safety officers.
To my dismay, each time I called, the employee refused to entertain my query and my request to apply for a position, telling me that the company does not hire women as site supervisors or safety officers.
If this were the case, why wasn't the course restricted to men?
I have experience, having worked in shipping for almost 10 years.
