In a noisy construction zone, bent below a sink, Barbara Cochran ignores the hardhat.
She often leaves it on after she leaves work, wears it during the drive back to her Oak Hillside house
and also remembers it only when she slides out of the motorist's seat and bumps her head.
She's pleased she still has it on.
"Safety and security first," she stated with a smile framed by pigtails in tight braids.
Below the 22-year-old's safety helmet is just one of the few girls in the profession.
Cochran is in her initial year of a plumbing instruction with Daytona State University.
She's presently working 5 days a week on the Daytona Rising job at Daytona International
Speedway where she invests her time mounting fixtures, laying pipes, soldering water lines, and
sometimes going to snatch a ladder since, at just 5 feet, she's also brief to get to certain locations.
She is surrounded by pipelines, sinks, males and also tools. Bunches of males.
Of the virtually 800 building workers presently at the Speedway, concerning 15 are females.
Cochran is the only girl plumber in the number.
In 2014, the Bureau of Effort Surveys stated 9.8 million people working in the construction industry.
Of these, 872,000 of them, about 9 percent, were women. Ladies are even much less stood for in the
drain profession-- merely 1.1 percent, baseding on 2013 information from the Labor Bureau.
