‘Instead of modern industry, we keep showing dirty boots and mud,’ Mark Reynolds tells CLC event
Mace boss Mark Reynolds has called out construction industry leaders for failing to fix the sector’s image to boost recruitment.
Speaking at a Construction Leadership Council event about the sector deal last week, Reynolds, who heads up the council’s skills work stream, said the industry was failing to show itself in a good light.
He said: “If you want to promote an industry that says we are a diverse, modern industry the last thing we should do is show a load of people in dirty boots, covered in mud, in hard hats, in winter conditions, on an unsafe site. What do we do? We do that.”
