The numbers are clear, and the stakes are high. The US construction industry’s skilled labor shortage has been building for years.   A rapidly retiring workforce, competition from other sectors, and persistent gaps in vocational training are straining the talent pipeline. At the same time, economic uncertainty and shifting career priorities among younger generations are intensifying the challenge, leaving the industry under mounting pressure to attract and retain skilled workers.   In his recent insight, Jeff Peragallo, Director and VP of Operations, Linesight, shares practical strategies firms can adopt to stay ahead of labor shortages.    From leveraging off-site fabrication and forging strategic partnerships, to conducting labor market surveys and enhancing jobsite conditions, Jeff highlights how proactive planning helps teams deliver projects on time and on budget, even in a constrained workforce environment.   Read the full piece here: https://lnkd.in/e63ciNW5

Scott Halyday, Regional Director, Southeast Asia, offers his perspective: "APAC’s commercial construction sector is evolving fast, driven by shifting work dynamics and growing ESG pressure from both regulators and investors.
