NAVARRO-ASTOR, Elena; ROMAN-ONSALO, Marisa  e  INFANTE-PEREA, Margarita. INTERNATIONAL REVIEW OF STUDIES ON CAREER BARRIERS UNDER THE GENDER PERSPECTIVE IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY. Innovar [online]. 2016, vol.26, n.61, pp.103-117. ISSN 0121-5051.  https://doi.org/10.15446/innovar.v26n61.57169.

The construction industry in Europe and Latin America, as in other places of the world, is characterized by a low participation of women and a low rate of feminization. The analysis of the current state of international research on career barriers within this industry over the period 2000-2014 allows us to identify and analyze the barriers that affect professional development for women, and at the same time explain their low turnout. For the analysis and presentation of the results of the literature review, this study makes a difference between the barriers perceived by people who are not yet employed, and those identified by individuals who are actually working in this industry. The article offers a study of construction industry organizations from the concept of gender, presenting among its results the barriers identified in different countries. Results also show that, up to date, this issue has just been researched in spain and latin America.
