Builders are hiring Portuguese bricklayers on 1,000 a week because not enough Britons can do the job¡£
Skilled workers are in such short supply they can demand double the normal day rate of 100.
A month ago the Mail revealed that a similar labour shortage had forced the UK¡¯s biggest sandwich manufacturer to recruit in Hungary because it could not fill its production line with local workers¡£
Portugal has become a hot spot for builders while energy firms are hiring Spanish engineers, according to James Hick of recruiters Manpower¡£
¡®There is a severe shortage of skilled tradespeople
in Britain – bricklayers, plumbers, electricians, mechanical engineers, HGV drivers,¡¯ he added. ¡®Where they were paying 500 a week at the beginning of the year, the demand for those skills means they are now paying 1,000 a week¡£¡°
¡®That pressure on skills is huge, particularly in the construction industry in the South East and London.¡¯¡°
He accused UK firms of halting training schemes in the downturn and being left short when construction picked up¡£
¡®That is not something that can be resolved quickly, but companies need people who can work now, so they have had to put up pay and look elsewhere¡¯, he added¡£¡°Õâ²»
