Government & Construction Launch Talent Retention Scheme

During any downturn employers risk losing their valued employees due to a lack of available work.  This means they then need to find new workers when demand picks up.

To help support the retention of these crucial workers where your company may have a downturn or gap in work, Government and Industry have jointly launched the Construction Talent Retention Scheme.

This online portal service allows for the temporary lending of your workers to other employers, but importantly you continue to retain them as your employee.

Apprenticeships are a great route for taking on new recruits but if you need to recruit for an experienced worker, companies that currently have vacancies are being asked to consider becoming ‘early adopters’ of the scheme ahead of its launch next week by registering through the TRS portal.
