HIA recommends the next Queensland Government:
- Improve industry attraction and promotion
- More home building apprentice and trainees
- Targeted skilled immigration
Home building presents diverse and lucrative work opportunities for all, and especially for those who succeed in obtaining key skills, qualifications and advanced education in the field.
Our industry provides opportunities that can begin with an apprenticeship and progress to expertise in various specialised fields, establishing a business, or using experience to secure advanced education in fields such as planning, certification, or design. Our industry accommodates everyone, from office administrators and salespeople to lawyers and architects.
We need to better promote opportunities within the residential construction sector so that more young Queenslanders choose home building as their career for the future.
Policy support in the following areas will help to attract new people to the home building industry.
- Industry attraction and promotion - develop a marketing campaign promoting the breadth of viable career and lucrative business opportunities within the construction sector for smart young people.
- More home building apprentices and trainees -implement policies that attract and incentivise apprentices, reduce the cost of hosting an apprentice, and recognise the importance of mentoring as a tool for improving apprenticeship completion rates.
- Targeted skilled immigration - support and advocate for immigration policies that focus on skills required in home building, and faster industry integration / access / licensing pathways.
