The construction sector has a significant impact on the economy, typically contributing up to 10% of a country’s GDP (somewhat less in developed economies but more in developing countries) and up to 15% of total employment. The industry must also evolve to respond to the changing environment that it serves and driving this evolution is a steady of stream of government- and industry-generated reports that variously analyse performance, highlight weaknesses, respond to critical incidents, and promote innovation. These pages aim to provide the reader with the latest related reports, both from within the UK and the global sector, as well as providing an archive of past examples.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
