Abstract

A significant difficulty in INDIA's building sector is the scarcity of skilled laborers. This research aims to analyze the causes of skilled labor shortages, the damage they do to the building industry, and the solutions that may be implemented to fix the problem. The research included a survey of businesspeople in India's Eastern Cape Province using a kind of conceptual modeling called System Dynamics (SD). Key findings related to skilled labor shortages include investment, pay issues, talent management, workplace environment, training, experience, and government policy. The lack of competent workers has a major effect on efficiency, output, and timeliness. Increased spending on workers' pay has been shown to have a positive effect on the availability of skilled workers in causal loop diagrams. As a result, efficiency will increase. Putting money into talent management and employee training will increase the availability of qualified workers. In addition, a more pleasant workplace with enhanced health and safety measures may decrease worker turnover due to discontent with their jobs, thereby alleviating the industry's acute scarcity of trained laborers.
