.BuildForceCan expects Manitoba’s ICI sector to experience moderate but sustained employment growth between 2025 and 2030 while elevated levels of activity in both the residential and non-residential sectors in Saskatchewan should continue through 2032.
The forecasts come from the agency’s 2023-2032 Construction and Maintenance Looking Forward reports for the two provinces released April 26.
“Construction activity in Manitoba should remain at a relatively constant and elevated level across the 10-year forecast period,” said Bill Ferreira, executive director of BuildForce. At the same time, the industry is expected to attract an estimated 8,700 new workers under the age of 30 from the local population. This trend shows industry efforts to boost recruitment to meet future needs are working, and that the industry should be able to meet its anticipated labour force demands throughout the forecast period.
Women represented just four per cent of the 38,600 tradespeople employed in Manitoba’s industry in 2022, unchanged from 2021. After posting an increase of six per cent in 2022, employment demands are expected to grow by a further eight per cent to a peak in 2027, before contracting across the remainder of the 10-year forecast period. By 2032, overall employment is expected to rise by three per cent.
