A senior engineer says she hopes her PPE headscarf design will inspire Muslim women who want to pursue a career in engineering and construction.
Aminah Shafiq, from Birmingham, said her design makes it safer for women wearing a headscarf to work in operational jobs.She said she hopes it "represents them and accommodates" women. "I started thinking about the two concerns I had - the free flowing material and the fact that the helmet wouldn't fit over my head," she said.
"I took inspiration from the athletic headscarves which have more of a snug fit and none of the free-flowing materials."Ms Shafiq, who graduated in engineering two years ago and is now a senior water advisor, added that she did not want women to "struggle" like she did. "Let's create something that represents them and accommodates them and maybe convince them to pursue operational roles."
Thank goodness for the full integration of sexist/misogynistic symbols of (moralising) 'them and us' difference. How progressive.
