For the past few years it is a well-known fact that the construction industry is suffering from a skills shortage. With even more construction work being planned across the UK and less skilled workers. The skills shortage is causing a problem for the housing developments as some work isn’t being completed on time due to the lack of skilled workers.
Many trades are being affected by the skills shortage as they are all struggling to find the skilled workers. The biggest shortage seems to be amongst bricklayers and plasterers, however, all trades are in need for more skilled workers that have the qualifications and skills to work on site.
The skills shortage is causing problems within the construction industry.
Younger people are being targeted to help narrow the skills gap and they are being encouraged the join a construction industry that offers lots of work. However, skilled workers do not always have to be the younger generation.
