Education and
proper training is essential for management as well as for labour. If labour is
well trained in performing all their duties according to the industry standards
then they can contribute to the success of the company. If the labour is
unskilled, they do not understand how to perform their jobs and unable to meet
the company’s goals and leads to low productivity. The unskilled and less
efficient labour could lead to errors in their work, take extra time in
performing it and also are more susceptible to injuries. Supervisors need to
ensure that all labor working in their workplace are trained and have enough
knowledge about their work and equipment.
British Columbia Labor Market
BritishColumbia has bright economic prospects, including growth as a global trade hub
and development of new knowledge base industries but their rising concern is
that province does not have enough people with the right education and skills to
support their country's economy. Ensuring the high quality of labour with
necessary qualification and skills have become their major interest. With the
Post-secondary education, training and high school initiatives program British
Columbia has achieved many desired results like improving the economy by growth in
different sectors, employment level, productivity, investment and trade etc.
Construction of the sector is labour intensive and has the capability to hire a large number of
skilled and unskilled labour. The construction sector is booming across British
Columbia. Meanwhile, the skilled labour shortage is a prevailing issue. Skilled construction workers are less
interested to work in this industry because they thought that the jobs in this
sector are dangerous, unsafe, difficult and wages are low. Due to the shortage
of manpower in this sector, industry depends moreover on unskilled labour which
causes negative effects like labour injuries, poor performance and quality, less
business and revenue. To recover the shortage of skilled workers in British Columbia, they have developed some training programs as well as by
increasing projects they are making policies like increase in wages rate and
providing safety and other incentives to their labour.
