Malcolm Fleming: Certified Builders Chief Executive on demand for construction workers increasing

from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB

Builders across the country are starting to feel the benefits of the rise of employment opportunities.  SEEK NZ's latest Employment Report shows a drop of 0.3% on overall job ads. But demand for construction workers continues to add volume, with a rise of 3.4% nationally, up 43% year on year. Certified Builders Chief Executive Malcolm Fleming told Andrew Dickens jobs are coming from across the country.  He says employment agreements in January are up 20% on this time last year - which is positive at this quieter time of year.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
