Queensland’s healthcare infrastructure is undergoing some major changes, with the continued development of the Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast Public University Hospital.
For the month of August BUSY At Work will promote the benefits of Australian Apprenticeships via our latest radio advertising campaign targeting employers. The key areas this advertising will broadcast to include Toowoomba, Darling Downs, Gympie and Sunshine Coast. Further advertising is set to commence throughout the Bundaberg, Wide Bay and Burnett region on the 25 August.
This expansion has most recently been confirmed by a survey from CBRE Group. Their survey of Queensland’s hotel market identified that upwards pressure on the supply of rooms would drive future growth in the industry. Between 2010 and 2011 alone, the average occupancy rate for Queensland hotels jumped from 75 per cent to 79 per cent.
Even if your workers completed their original apprenticeship many years ago, taking the opportunity to add to their skill set can have real benefits for your business.
Construction on the rail link began earlier this year, with the project expected to be completed in 2016. In total, this initiative will cost $1.147 billion, with these expenses spread over the Queensland and federal governments.
For tradies engaged in difficult or complicated work there is a constant risk of building disputes breaking out with clients.
Queensland’s state government has called for expressions of interest to begin the construction of the 41 km crossing, which will be the largest single road project ever undertaken in Queensland using a combination of state and federal funding.
Residential housing is one of the biggest areas seeing growth across Australia, as domestic demand for builders and tradespeople makes up for faltering mining construction.
Australian industry will take a lead role in advising on reforms for vocational education and training (VET) to ensure the sector drives productivity and competitiveness improvements across the economy.
In 2014-2015, the state government has budgeted $615 million to address vocational training. Of that funding, roughly a third will go into the foundation skills necessary to start an apprenticeship.
The BUSY Group acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the country throughout Australia and their continuing connection to the land, sea and community. We pay our respects to them and their cultures, and their Elders past and present.
