We sit down with Josh Ruiters and Dan St. Onge from Hi-Tech Concrete Cutting to explore their innovative approach to building a people-first culture in the construction industry. Join us as we delve into their strategies for maintaining a skilled workforce, reducing turnover, and creating a workplace where employees can thrive.
Josh and Dan kick off the discussion by sharing their insights into adopting an employee-centric approach in a union environment. They emphasize the importance of offering more than just the standard union contract and providing employees with opportunities for growth, development, and long-term career prospects.
The conversation also touches on the significance of building a business where employees can retire comfortably. Josh and Dan discuss the value of creating a supportive and inclusive work environment where employees feel valued and appreciated, leading to higher job satisfaction and retention rates.
As advocates for collaboration and transparency, Josh and Dan highlight the benefits of mingling with other companies and breaking away from the old-school mentality of secrecy. They stress the importance of nurturing relationships within the industry and focusing on what can be controlled to foster a positive and productive workplace culture.
Throughout the episode, Josh and Dan share practical tips and strategies for setting employees up for success, relearning the industry, and navigating the challenges of a labor shortage. They underscore the growing awareness among young people about the opportunities available in the trades and the need for businesses to attract and retain top talent.
