What's Being Built in Connecticut Right Now

Connecticut employers face intense competition for skilled tradespeople in a state with the nation's lowest construction workforce percentage at just 4.3%. Despite strong growth, construction employment surged 141% post-pandemic, the limited talent pool of approximately 62,000 workers creates bidding wars for qualified candidates. Geographic constraints between urban centers and rural areas complicate recruitment, while infrastructure project uncertainty from fluctuating state transportation budgets makes workforce planning difficult. Attracting younger workers to replace retiring tradespeople remains a critical challenge in this tight labor market.
