The National Capital Heavy Construction Association (NCHCA) is undertaking a multi-year recruitment project to address labour shortages in the Ottawa area. The project, starting this month, โ€œwill focus on improving perception of our industry and developing practical solutions and strategies with input from our members and other construction associations,โ€ writes NCHCA president Darrin Alberty.

Alberty reported in the NCHCAโ€™s newsletter that the project will be funded from the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development through its Ontario Labour Market Partnership program

โ€œThe outcome we hope to achieve is that the public perceives a career in the heavy construction industry to be an attractive and sustainable career choice,โ€ Alberty wrote.
โ€œWe are now waiting to receive the formal agreement from MOL for signature. One of our first steps will be to engage a project manager, preferably with experience in managing government-funded projects. Please let us know if you are aware of any suitable candidates.โ€

Alberty invited inquiries by email atย da******@************up.com.
