What the Skilled Labor Shortage Means for Owners
Charlotte partner Sam Reaves’ article “ What the Skilled Labor Shortage Means for Owners” was published in the summer edition of The Voice, the official magazine of The Construction Users Roundtable.
“The skilled labor shortage in the construction industry has been a hot topic for several years. Much of what has been written focuses on the shortage either form a ‘state of the industry’ perspective, or from the perspective of the contractors and subcontractors on the front lines who are losing workers,” Sam states in his opening. “Little has been written about what the shortage means for project owners.”
His article then addresses that deficit, explaining how to mitigate construction project risks through better planning, communication and contract drafting.
