The construction sector holds significant potential to address unemployment challenges through a well-structured reform agenda, according to a recent report. Experts suggest that targeted policy interventions can transform the industry into a major driver of economic growth and job creation.

The proposed strategy is built around three mutually reinforcing policy pillars. These measures aim to streamline regulatory frameworks, boost infrastructure investment, and enhance workforce skills within the building and construction trades.

Industry stakeholders note that implementing these sequenced reforms will not only improve project delivery but also create sustainable livelihood opportunities for many job seekers. As policymakers review the findings, the focus remains on practical steps to revitalize the sector.
