How one company tackled its construction labor shortage with CareerArc
The construction labor shortage is so severe that a recent Associated General Contractors of America report shows that 79% of construction companies are concerned that they will not be able to locate and hire qualified workers. At the same time, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects that employment is only estimated to grow .6% annually until 2024. To make matters worse, most of today’s skilled laborers are set to retire soon and millennials are not being educated on the potential of construction as a viable career.
