Women working in Refrigeration, Air-Conditioning and Heat Pumps: a Worldwide Survey.

Résumé

The International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) OzonAction undertook a worldwide survey on women in cooling. The aim was to better understand the background, motivation, challenges, and opportunities faced by women working in the in Refrigeration, Air-Conditioning and Heat Pumps (RACHP) sector. In total 810 women replied to the survey. The results indicated a high industry retention rate, with 47% of the women working in the RACHP sector for more than 10 years. The three main challenges identified were: difficulties in managing a healthy work-life balance, lack of career advancement opportunities and stereotypes or prejudice about women from clients or customers. Conversely, the most proud career achievements were earning the respect and confidence of colleagues, developing a new product/service and training/teaching people.
The survey identified the challenges and opportunities faced by women working in the RACHP sector providing valuable insight to the development of new policies and initiatives to support women.
