2020 Promises Growth for Contractors but With a Twist
Author, Kevin Howard, C.R.I.S., Account Executive, Rancho Mesa Insurance Services, Inc.
Based on a recently published survey from the Associated General Contractors of America, 80% of contractors predict growth in 2020…but there is a twist. There is a major labor shortage.
The current California Unemployment Rate, is a staggeringly low 3.9% compared to an unbearable 12% during the 2008 recession. As Californians, this statistic is music to our ears. However, for construction owners, the demand to hire skilled workers from an extremely shallow workforce pool has created a need for Best Practices hiring strategies paired with enhanced methods of retaining employees.
As a 13-consecutive year Best Practices Agency, Rancho Mesa provides resources to equip our clients with strategies and methods to enhance human resources strategies. These efforts lead to broader protection from insurable risk.
We are excited to partner with Equal Parts Consulting on February 6, 2020 for a seminar that will equip businesses with the needed methods for this economic environment. Attendees can look forward to the following topics and discussions below:
Strategies and best practices to create an easy to implement hiring process that aligns with your company’s culture.
Effective ways to assess and evaluate talent to ensure they are aligned with your company purpose, values, and culture.
Uncover some of the most important things your business can do to attract and retain the right talent for your culture.
Our goal is to help our contractor clients map out a game plan that will help retain talent, search for needed key employees and create a successful 2020 and beyond. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, at (619) 438-6874.
