In 2023, France, Germany, and Poland led the European market for employment in road and motorway construction, with their combined share accounting for nearly 48% of the workforce. France's position was supported by a modest increase, while Poland showed notable growth at over 3%. Conversely, Spain and Italy recorded declines, reflective of wider economic challenges.
Future trends indicate continued growth potential in Eastern Europe, with Hungary and Serbia showing strong upward trends. A focus on infrastructure investments and innovative construction practices may drive employment growth in these countries. Conversely, Southern Europe might need to address economic constraints to maintain their workforce levels.
