Pay attracts. Structure retains.
92% of construction businesses cannot hire. But the problem is not just finding people. It is keeping them.
The work is there. What has become scarce is qualified, committed people. Fair pay and benefits bring a person in, and that attracts. But nobody stays, commits and delivers for pay alone.
Pay and benefits bring a person in. What keeps them is feeling part of it.
People stay when they feel useful, recognized and part of the place. Someone treated as just another worker, as a number to get a result, gives nothing back: no effort, no delivery, no loyalty.
Paying more solves attraction. Retention is solved with structure and culture. Over the next three weeks I will show how to build that, the job-site way.
