08: Finding the Right Gear and Community with Constanza (Technically A Tech)

Transmit Safety: Occupational Health And Safety on All Frequencies

Tune into today’s super fun episode, where Aimee hangs out with Constanza aka Technically a Tech, the Workwear Queen, and everyone’s worksite bestie.
If you’re a woman who works on-site like me (even if only occasionally), you know how hard it is to find field workwear and safety gear that is size-inclusive, actually comfortable, durable, and well-priced. Followed by the great challenge of finding community because sometimes you’re the only woman on the job site.
Well, look no further because Constanza is here to talk about her field of work, finding the right gear, building community for Women on Site, and much more.
In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How to learn about the opportunities in your field and land your first job
• The nitty-gritty of an Environmental Technician’s life on-site
• The importance and benefits of having the right gear for on-site work
• Some of Constanza’s latest tricks for finding workwear that works
• A peek into Constanza’s workwear reviewing, her relationships with brands, and what’s to come
• Women on Site: a community for women who work on-site
• What to consider if you want to work as an Environmental Technician

The Transmit Safety Podcast is here to help health and safety practitioners achieve a holistic approach to workplace health and safety so they can become impactful leaders and put the value of safety into action.
