Sammanfattning: The construction industry has been the least gender equal and most male-dominated in Sweden and it is important to analyze the problem and the underlying causes. Statistics show that 99 % of all craftsmen were men in 2020. The recruitment process plays an important role in the gender equality issue considering that it is where corporations show their position on both gender equality and how they work with the gender equality issues they face.  The purpose of this study is to investigate the gender equality challenges in recruitment and how major operators work with this process.  The method used is literature studies and qualitative studies. Interview studies have been key to answering our questions. We have six interviewed operators with different turnover. Respondents selected by the individuals who recruit construction related personnel to their corporation.  The results show that different large corporations with different turnovers decide how they implement gender equality in their recruitment companies in the construction industry. It has also shown a clear connection with the fact that the large corporations with the most turnover have a much better grasp of the gender equality issue and work with constant improvements and challenges, which also shows a clear structure in gender equality work within recruitment in the corporation
