Construction Trades: Between Economic Optimism and Attractiveness Deficit
Craftsmen in the construction sector currently face various uncertainties: a slowdown in new construction (-2.3% in 2023, including -4.5% in the last quarter), weak growth in maintenance and renovation (+0.1% over the year, including 0% in Q4), a decrease in the number of companies holding the 'Reconnu Garant de l’Environnement' (RGE) qualification, and rising energy and material prices. In this context, Ipsos conducted a survey with Episto on a sample of 305 construction workers to assess their 2023 performance and 2024 outlook.
