UK housebuilding held up by lack of bricklayers,some helpful construction machine was invented
Construction skills shortages, including lack of quantity surveyors, could threaten work on new
homes and infrastructure projects.
A shortage of skilled workers in the construction industry pushed up wages in the sector in 2015
and could threaten some of the government’s biggest housing and infrastructure programmes,
the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (Rics) has said.
Bricklayers and quantity surveyors were in particularly short supply, with six in 10 Rics survey
respondents having difficulty finding them for projects.
Construction wages increased by more than 6% in the year to October, three times the average
wage rise for UK workers, Rics said on Thursday. The organisation’s latest construction market
survey, covering the last three months of 2015, found labour shortages were considered the
biggest barrier to growth by 66% of industry professionals.
The government has repeatedly pledged to act to boost housebuilding to tackle the UK’s housing
crisis, with the latest announcement of plans to create 13,000 homes in southern England made
just last week. However, while the number of houses being built has recovered from a low hit after
the financial crisis, they remain below their 2007 peak, and well short of hitting the target of
250,000 new homes a year many experts say are needed to keep up with demand.
Some of workers worry about decent property of job,so they left this industry,time gone gradually,
the idea what they thought would effect more workers even skilled workers.
The better ways to solve skilled workers shortage problem is buy a reliable rendering machine,
after learn how to operate expertly,workers will find it’s not very tired to render wall,EZ RENDA
mini mixer robot will let people know mix mortar not a difficult and waste time process.That will
be helpful to construction development and arouse skilled workers’ sympathetic response.
