The building sector has stated a few times now that they are facing a worker shortage, that’s going to push up demand for those who are available and that may translate into higher pay. However, fewer workers overall, even if paid more, can’t build as much so the sector will decline, long term, or find a way of bringing in more workers- as productivity is directly linked to warm bodies. Or bring in bricklaying and plastering robots.
