Employee retention strategies for construction companies

Shore up your human capital for what comes next

The historic construction labor shortage and the need for a highly trained workforce are among the biggest challenges construction companies are facing today. To meet the skilled labor shortage and maintain high levels of construction productivity, it’s critical to attract top talent — and keep it — with an industry-leading employee retention program.

Our customized approach starts with a workforce analysis using the latest recruitment technologies and analytics to ensure you’re targeting the right skills. Next, our employee benefits consulting experts will help ensure you retain your employees through competitive compensation and benefits packages, effective retirement solutions, and robust training programs that emphasize upskilling, reskilling, and cross-training — all while building an overall culture of workplace wellness.

With your employee retention strategies in place, our construction succession planning consultants will be there when it’s time to consider the future of the business. Whether you’re exploring a sale or transitioning the business to a family member or new executive team, we’ll help you explore your options, exit the company on your terms, and take the next step with holistic wealth planning.

With 100 years of experience working alongside construction industry companies, we understand the nuances of accounting, tax, and business operations and planning, and have the technical depth to help you execute your vision. It’s never too early to explore your options with our multidisciplinary team; let’s get started today.
