<ns0:DigestText>
<html:p>Existing law requires the Employment Development Department, among other duties, to establish, in conjunction with other state entities, a systemwide policy of actively promoting the training of women in nontraditional occupations. Existing law defines “nontraditional occupations” as any job classification in which not more than 25% of the employees are women, according to the statistics of the United States Department of Labor.</html:p>
<html:p>This bill would require the department to collect specified data on women in the construction industry, including, among other data, the educational capacity to produce trained, certified, and licensed women in construction. The
bill would require the department, on or before July 1, 2027, and every 3 years thereafter, to report this data to the Legislature and post the report on its internet website.</html:p>
