|
|
 The construction industry in Idaho is a leader in workforce expansion and has seen significant growth over the past decade. From 2014 to 2023, employment has almost doubled and added nearly 31,000 workers. This was despite being interrupted by a short recession. For industry growth to have occurred, there had to be available workers to meet the demand.
