Thanks Civil Contractors Federation Tasmania Ltd for hosting an energetic and passionate strategic planning day with industry and stakeholders. Diversity and inclusion were major talking points.... if only we could take on board these wise words: Loads of companies talk a good game about diversity and inclusion. But let's be real - for most, it's just ticking boxes and slapping some nice words on their website. In reality… If it doesn't boost their profits, they couldn't care less. But there are some companies doing things differently. What are they doing? They make it a point to ONLY look at blind CVs. They remove ALL names, ages, and any bias-triggering details from resumes. To focus solely on skills and experience. Nothing else. I want to live and work in that world, and I think the future generations do to..... Their core values are Integrity, Innovation, creativity, and collaboration. They don't just post these values on a wall. They live them. And here’s what they’ve discovered: They’re attracting more diverse candidates They’re hiring people from different walks of life They’ve created a culture of innovation and collaboration Recruiting for them is an absolute pleasure. Because the company sells itself. Here's the takeaway: If you want your company to stand out, don't just talk about your values. Live them. Show us you mean it. Because in a world full of noise, actions speak louder than words 🌍

Monday mornings…. In construction recruitment they can be anxiety inducing. Will everyone turn up or won’t they?! 😬 I’ve spent many a Sunday night in a cold sweat. 😰 Fortunately this morning is a good day!!! 🎉 Dealing with let downs is part of our industry, especially after a sunny weekend! Lots of weekend millionaires out there. 🤣 I’ve dealt with my clients long enough that they know we’ve done everything in our power to make sure we have selected the most reliable workers. Even if we do occasionally get let down…it happens…I’m always straight on the phone to the clients to inform them. Don’t shy away from it as no news will frustrate the site teams even more! Face the music and have a solution ready! Now I know all workers are in I can power forward with the week and the team are set up raring to go. If you need any workers for site give us a call💪 How’s your week started? #constructionrecruitment #buildingrecruitment #trades #labour #oxford #Monday #Danielowen #mentalhealthawarenessweek 📞 01865335370 📧 gregg.lawton@danielowen.co.uk

Q: Are there regional trends or shifts in the construction industry that we need to keep in mind during recruitment? A: As the industry gets younger, finding travelers appears to be getting more difficult. That said, it could be that as the new generation settles into the industry for the long term, travelers will be easier to find.
