ON DEMAND WEBINAR
Duration: 1 hour

The labor shortage has become a massive issue among various trades in recent years. In many cases, the problems lie in attracting new talent.

In many cases, the younger generations today tend to have a negative view of skilled labor. In fact, many see these jobs as unsafe and overly physical. And they'd rather do work that's  more technology-focused than physically demanding. To recruit more skilled workers, organizations must get creative. Join us for this webinar where we will:

• Review the labor shortage versus labor productivity
• Discuss the current perception of construction jobs and why some view the trades as not “hip” enough?
• Hear about some technology solutions that work in the field and can help attract talent, improve productivity and boost profitability
