Technical jobs are no longer for men.
As more women continue to break barriers and thrive in these fields.
Many women have moved on to become managers and supervisors in fields where men used to be team leaders, supervisors and managers, especially in the mining, shipping and aviation industries, to name a few.
They have not only held higher positions in those male-dominated fields but have delivered and continue to deliver quality services to the organisations they are attached with.
Three more Papua New Guinean women have proven this trend by becoming the first certified and qualified women to handle and operate the new rubber-tyred gantry (RTG) cranes.
The three women were part of a contingent of six operators who underwent a week-long high skilled set training in Manila, Philippines at the International Container Terminal Service, Inc. (ICTSI) headquarters.
The women have overshadowed the odds of being in a male dominated environment and have worked alongside their male counterparts which is quite challenging but it’s something they really enjoyed doing.
For instance, operating of huge cranes and working in a busy environment like the shipping industry providing services in loading and off loading containers.
In such cases, critical thinking, analysis and timing is crucial and challenging and demands commitment, self-sacrifice and determination to handle the job well.
However, for the three women, they are up for the challenge and are always ready to deliver what is needed from them.
The female operators Nelly Joseph, Daphney Nasinom and Nasunu Joe are currently employed by South Pacific International Container Terminal. They have furthered their training in Manila, Philippines and recently returned.
They are specialised in operating the new RTGs 16-wheeled electric powered cranes which will power the international container terminal in Lae to meet international standards.
These three women were part of the second batch of operators who underwent specialised high tactical training skills under the ICTSI skills development pathway program to equip and develop skills, giving the locals an opportunity to enhance their skills and knowledge in the various aspects of container terminal
services.
The women were very grateful for the privilege and opportunity given and stand ready to deliver what they have learned from the training.
