Industry concerns
‘Research shows UK construction and infrastructure productivity per worker is 13.5% below the UK average, highlighting a structural skills and capability deficit rather than a short‑term hiring issue.’ – Construction Leadership Council
‘The UK infrastructure and construction workforce will require an annual average of 629,000 to 706,000 workers over the next five years to deliver planned projects, driven by £718bn of public and private investment.’ – Gov.uk
