Malcolm Fleming: Certified Builders Chief Executive on demand for construction workers increasing

Builders across the country are starting to feel the benefits of the rise of employment opportunities. 

SEEK NZ's latest Employment Report shows a drop of 0.3% on overall job ads.

But demand for construction workers continues to add volume, with a rise of 3.4% nationally, up 43% year on year.

Certified Builders Chief Executive Malcolm Fleming told Andrew Dickens jobs are coming from across the country. 

He says employment agreements in January are up 20% on this time last year - which is positive at this quieter time of year.
