Construction Jobs Forecast Looks Good for 2013
The nation's construction industry is expected to post job gains in the coming year, with a solid improvement seen in the housing market in the second half of 2012 that may provide the industry a foundation to build upon going into next year. Predictions of a 4.1-percent increase in year-over-year prices could indicate that construction jobs will increase soon, and the moderate recovery that the construction industry has seen nationwide is expected to continue in 2013.
