It’s National Apprenticeship Week! 🔧 With 82% of construction businesses struggling to recruit and nearly a quarter of workers over 50, the industry faces a major skills gap. We need 937,000 new recruits over the next decade. Apprenticeships are key to solving this crisis, providing hands-on training, addressing skill shortages, and opening doors for young talent. But we need more flexibility, better incentives, and stronger outreach to attract the 24,000 apprentices required each year. It’s time to champion apprenticeships and inspire the next generation to build the future! #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #FutureBuilders #ConstructionCareers #SkillsForLife

Yesterday, Group CEO Amit O. launched a vital campaign on GB News, demanding urgent action to tackle the mental health crisis in construction. Two workers a day are dying by suicide. If The Labour Party wants to get Britain building again, we must act now.   We’ve transformed physical safety in construction, now let’s do the same for mental health.
