This is a sensitive and extremely important point, as the diversity of professionals who perform the numerous functions in a temporary context implies that companies are prepared to respond to the specific needs of each project.
The crisis that affected the Portuguese economy in 2008, and particularly the construction sector, had consequences for the business fabric and the professionals working in the area; a significant number of people chose to emigrate, others underwent professional retraining and now work in other areas, which resulted in a significant reduction in available workers for the construction sector.
In recent years, the growing dynamism of the real estate sector has had a strong impact on construction companies, which, to meet the increasing demand for quality, face the challenge of seeking increasingly qualified and competent professionals. The need to increase productivity has led to the creation of innovative strategies to address the problem of a lack of skilled labor, through the promotion of training and the retention of the best talents. Furthermore, investing in more assertive recruitment, offering better economic conditions and working conditions, has been crucial to minimizing the shortage of professionals.
With over 20 years of experience in Human Resources Management for the construction sector, Talenter™ has a team of Human Resources professionals with in-depth knowledge of the sector.
