Every week brings new reports of materials costs hitting record highs, while lead times lengthen or become ever more uncertain.  AGC of America recently released a Construction Inflation Alert. This document is intended to help chapters and members explain to owners, government officials, and others, what is happening and what all parties can do to minimize the damage. 
 
For many, news coverage of vaccinations in early January brought to mind Winston Churchill’s famous quote from 1942, after the Allies’ first major victory in World War II: “Now, this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”
 
In 2020, companies across a variety of sectors shifted strategies to support an ever-evolving remote workforce. Now, more than ever, it is clear technology plays an invaluable role in the workplace, regardless of the environment. Technology is driving a number of resources that allow individuals to feel connected, be more productive and, in many cases, recruit the right talent—a challenge within any labor market.

Construction employment in February remained below pre-pandemic levels in all but six states, according to an analysis by the AGC of America of government employment data released recently, while soaring materials costs and supply-chain problems threaten future employment. The association issued a Construction Inflation Alert detailing the problems and urged a rollback of tariffs and other supply impediments. 
 
Helping others is human nature. During the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, one-third of United States households were still donating money to charity. Additionally, almost half made an effort to shop locally or order takeout, in order to support neighborhood businesses.
 
Much about our workplaces has changed since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, including how safety and health professionals and their work are perceived by their organization’s C-suite.
