One in ten contractors and suppliers say skills shortage
is critically impacting budgets, according to
Scape’s new 'Sustainability in the Supply Chain' report. Nearly 85% of
public sector construction managers, and 58% of private sector contractors and
suppliers cite the current skills shortage as negatively impacting the quality
of their workmanship, as well as one in ten citing it as critically impacting
their ability to keep to budget. The report, which surveyed over 150
contractors, subcontractors and senior managers at public sector organisations
highlighted the stark realities of a skills shortage that’s at “breaking
point”. Download a copy of the report from the Scape website.
