Angitha Pradeep looks at ten ways that stakeholders can improve productivity in the built environment

Skilled Workforce

The most important aspect of increasing productivity in the built environment is dependent on its workforce. Currently, the industry is undergoing demographic shifts and a mass influx of migrant labourers, globally. An investment in their skills, apprenticeship programmes by megaprojects, and regional training programmes must be seen as a long-term asset to the industry. Furthermore, to make sure that work sites are run more efficiently, the workforce must be trained to ensure that their skills match the industry’s needs. Training the workforce adequately also decreases the chance of injuries on a job, which, in turn, increases productivity.
