U.S. has a shortage of skilled trade labor workers
The U.S. faces a persistent shortage of skilled trade workers, including electricians, plumbers, welders, HVAC technicians, and construction specialists. An aging workforce, retirements, gaps in vocational training, and increasing demand from infrastructure, housing, energy, and data-center projects are putting pressure on employers to find qualified workers. LiveNOW from FOX's Stephanie Coueignoux speaks with Noah Yosif from the American Staffing Association on the trend.
