Something that happens to you. You post a job, you wait, and if nobody shows up, you blame the market.\n\nThat doesn't work anymore. Not with what's coming.\n\n## How big is the construction labor shortage?\n\nThe math is not subtle. The National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) estimates that 41% of the current construction workforce will retire by 2031. That is not a distant problem.

Build a real construction apprenticeship path\n\nNot a vague promise to \"train someone up.\" An actual construction training program: what a new hire learns in month one, month six, year two, and what they're qualified to do at each stage. When the path is clear, people can see themselves in it.\n\nA real path also needs your standards written down somewhere a new hire can find them. If your schedules, checklists and job notes live in a veteran's head, they leave when the veteran does. Keeping them in one place in [construction management software](https://jackapp.io/au/features) means a new crew member learns how your company actually builds.\n\n### 2. Partner with local schools and TAFE\n\nVET in Schools programs and local TAFE campuses are sitting on exactly the talent builders say they can't find. Showing up at these programs, offering work experience placements, guest-teaching a class, or sponsoring tools and equipment puts your company in front of people before your competitors even know they exist.\n\n### 3. Market careers, not just job ads\n\nHiring construction workers off a job board is hard when your ad looks like everyone else's. An ad that says \"carpenter wanted\" competes with every other ad that says the same thing. A video of an apprentice explaining what their first year looked like, or a post about a crew member who started as a labourer and now runs jobs, does something a job board can't. It shows someone what the path looks like from the inside.\n\nNone of these are complicated. What they have in common is that they don't wait. They treat the workforce as something a builder builds, the same way you'd build a client pipeline or a network of subbies.\n\n## Why building your own workforce becomes a real advantage\n\nHere's the part that gets missed. This isn't just about filling seats. A builder with their own training pipeline has something a competitor chasing the open market doesn't: people who were trained on that company's standards from day one, who know the systems, and who feel invested in because the company invested in them first.\n\nThat's not a hiring win. That's a competitive advantage that compounds. Every year you run your own pipeline, you widen the gap between yourself and the builders still hoping the right CV lands in their inbox.",{"id":824,"width":636},9129,{"id":826,"color":639},4600,{"id":828,"space":642},10700,[],{"__component":831,"id":832,"title":833,"blockWidth":834,"blockTheme":836,"bottomSpacing":839},"builder-modules.section-title",2013,"\"The retirement wave is coming either way.

BuildSkills Australia estimates residential construction needs 116,700 extra workers to reach the Housing Accord target of 1.2 million new homes by mid 2029, while experienced tradespeople are retiring faster than new ones are coming through.\n\n### How can builders deal with the construction labour shortage?\n\nBy building their own pipeline instead of waiting for the open market. That means a clear apprenticeship path with stages and skills, partnerships with local schools and TAFE, and marketing the career, not just posting the job.\n\n### How do you start a construction training program?\n\nMap out what a new hire learns and is qualified to do at month one, month six and year two. Write down your standards and processes so they can be taught, then pair each new hire with an experienced crew member.\n\n### What's the best way to find and hire construction workers?\n\nGet in front of people before they start job hunting. Work experience placements, guest-teaching at schools and TAFE, and sponsoring tools build relationships early, and content showing real career paths at your company stands out more than a standard job ad.",{"id":845,"width":636},9131,{"id":847,"color":639},4601,{"id":849,"space":642},10702,[],{"__component":852,"id":853,"heading":854,"subheading":30,"buttonLabel":855,"blockWidth":856,"blockTheme":858,"bottomSpacing":861},"builder-modules.subscribe-box",714,"Subscribe to Newsletter","Subscribe",{"id":857,"width":636},9132,{"id":859,"theme":860},4633,"eskyBgWithCharcoal",{"id":862,"space":863},10703,"normal",{"__component":644,"id":865,"copy":866,"alignment":647,"buttonsAlignment":647,"blockWidth":867,"blockBackground":869,"bottomSpacing":871,"buttons":873},3530,"### Dan Morton is the founder of JACK App.\n\nDan is a residential builder who runs his own building company, Adelaide Green Homes, alongside JACK App. He built JACK App to manage his own jobs, schedules and numbers, and his team still uses it every day.",{"id":868,"width":636},9133,{"id":870,"color":639},4602,{"id":872,"space":642},10704,[],{"id":875,"metaTitle":876,"metaDescription":877,"noindex":72,"shareImage":878},3420,"Construction Labor Shortage: Train Your Own Crew","Australia needs 116,700 more construction workers by 2029.
