Worker Shortage

The US alone is expected to appropriate trillions of dollars to assist companies in rebounding from COVID-19. The US Congress prior to COVID-19 was expected to appropriate at least $1.5 trillion spending for infrastructure construction, fueled with government spending including public private partnerships to address America’s skilled labor shortage.
