Construction workers may soon receive an employee rewards boost ahead of a predicted construction sector boom, it has been claimed.
Recruiter magazine has revealed that construction firms are upping their hiring efforts to prepare for a sector “bounceback”.
The publication has been told by Midas Rec2Rec managing director Richard Clarke that recruiters are starting to “beef up” their teams to meet the UK’s construction needs.
He told the magazine: “Construction firms have cut through the muscle and into the bone, so they will need to really ramp up recruitment to staff these projects.
“A lot of construction still needs to happen.”
