Examining Diversity in the Drinking Water Industry
This article discusses how, as the current workforce ages, water supply professionals need to look outside traditional sources for their replacements. The data indicate that efforts are needed at the precollege level to encourage students from all ethnic groups to take the math and science courses that give them the option of pursuing technical careers. At the college level, work is needed to increase the number and the success of women and minority students in science and engineering. Specific workforce data on the water industry were not available for this article, but all employers of technical professionals should ensure that people from diverse backgrounds have the opportunity to pursue and succeed in their careers.
