The Skills Shortage in Property Maintenance
One of the biggest challenges in property maintenance today is the shortage of skilled tradespeople. With fewer young professionals entering the field, the demand for experienced maintenance workers continues to rise.
SEQTER’s approach to solving the problem:
- Investing in apprenticeship and training programs to nurture new talent.
- Partnering with trade schools and vocational programs to encourage careers in maintenance.
- Upskilling existing employees through certification programs and on-the-job training.
- Leveraging technology (such as automation and AI) to improve efficiency and reduce workload pressures.
By addressing the labour shortage head-on, SEQTER is ensuring long-term service reliability for its clients while supporting the next generation of skilled professionals.
