Over 160 construction projects in the UAE are being delayed because of a shortage of skilled labour, reported Gulf News. Samir Khosla, vice-chairman of Dynamic Staffing Solutions, said many contractors are now looking at technology as a way to reduce the labour component. At present, there are $160bn worth of projects in Dubai alone and around one million labourers in the construction industry, with about 95% of the workforce being foreigners.
