About this listen

We recently released our blueprint for future-proofing the building and construction industry’s workforce in wake of a shortage of half a million workers.

With critical shortages across industries and skill levels hindering economic recovery and productivity growth, we chat with Jennifer Lawrence, Manager Industry Policy, about what will be needed in the coming years and the policy priorities for attracting, recruiting, training and retaining workers for the industry.

We also catch up with our Chief Economist Shane Garrett for the latest on inflation, interest rates and supply costs in the building and construction industry
