Construction workers are going to be scarce in Florida do to a number of reasons.Many were burned by job losses during the recession and aren’t returning to the industry. Others are tuned off by low pay or don’t want to work outside in Florida heat. Older workers are retiring and younger people aren’t eager to take their place.Shop class is no longer featured in high school as it used to be.Contractors struggle to find qualified workers.It could lead to a longer build out time not only for homes but major developments new retail plazas and condominiums high rises.The construction industry is going to need thousands of workers to meet the demand for new developments in the sunshine state in the next year.
