BuildForce Canada says labour force demand in Saskatchewan’s construction and maintenance industry should grow modestly by 2029. The residential sector is expected to pick up the pace as non-residential projects are completed. Starting this year, the two sectors are expected to diverge with a recovery on the residential side. The pace of overall employment declines is expected to stabilize in 2020-21. That will be bolstered by stronger exports that support moderate economic growth, an anticipated recovery in the construction of new housing, and industrial, commercial and institutional buildings.
