Celebrating the Power of Women in Construction: CASE Construction Equipment Leads the Way
Honouring National Women’s Day in South Africa
Every year on the 9th of August, South Africa celebrates Woman’s Day, a public holiday commemorating the historic march of 200,000 women to the Union Buildings in Pretoria to protest the then government's discriminatory pass laws on the 9th of August 1956. Today, Women’s Day celebrates the social, economic, and political contributions of women in South Africa.

The construction industry has long been male dominated, but women are increasingly making their mark. From administrators to financial experts, and from engineers to labourers, women bring unique perspectives and skills. CASE Construction recognizes the invaluable contributions women make to the industry and is committed to empowering and appreciating them.
