Griffiths to speak at CJ's HR conference
Construction minister Nigel Griffiths has agreed to speak at
Contract Journal's HR Conference on 4 December.
Griffiths will give the government's perspective on the skills
crisis facing the construction industry, and also aim to resolve
the apparent conflict between its plan to get 50% of young people
into higher education and the construction industry's need to get
more youngsters to learn a trade.
The conference, entitled Recruiting Our Future, will also
feature presentations from Costain, Taylor Woodrow, Shepherd
Construction, Finning UK, Aggregate Industries and Holloway White
Allom on the subjects of graduate recruitment and
apprenticeships.
The venue is 76 Portland Place in London. Please see the
