Demand for Construction Laborers

Ebert Construction is currently searching for construction laborers, carpenters and concrete workers.  In a recent article from the Minneapolis and St. Paul Business Journal, the construction industry in Minnesota as a whole is experiencing a shortage in the labor workforce.  Demand for workers is exceeding supply and they predict it will for some time.  A higher demand for the construction labor will most likely lead to higher wages.  With higher wages for construction laborers, there may be an increase in construction prices as well.  To read more from the Biz Journal’s article “Looming labor crunch already pushing up construction prices” visit their website here.
