Jobs in Construction Rise By 31k in November

According to recent data from the Associated General Contractors of America, construction employment increased by 31k jobs in November, 2021 with 10,300 jobs added in residential and 20,800 in the nonresidential categories.  The AGC said construction firms would have added even more jobs if they could find more qualified workers with many firms reporting an increasing number of unfilled positions.

“It is heartening to see steady job growth across all construction segments following a long period during which only residential contractors were adding employees…But record job openings show the industry needs still more workers as more types of nonresidential projects get started.”  Said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist.
