In this episode, we discuss the challenges of apprenticeships in the trades, particularly when they don’t work out despite employers still having to pay. We share our stance on refusing to fund unskilled or unmotivated workers and highlight how the lack of proper incentives from the government is failing both apprentices and businesses. Without significant change, the future of the construction industry is at risk, with fewer skilled workers entering the field. We also call out local colleges for prioritizing government funding over quality training, leaving employers to pick up the pieces. It’s a critical conversation about the future of our industry—don’t miss it!
