MBS and Cerebra sound out the industry on key issues and salaries

Between September and December 2008, Modern Building Services, in association with Cerebra Recruitment, carried out a reader, industry and salary survey.

• Ecological, economic and legislative demand for energy efficiency, sustainability and low-carbon technologies.
• A shortage of skilled engineers entering the industry and a lack of training and development opportunities both before and after entering the industry.
• The fear of an industry-wide slowdown caused by the current wider economic troubles.
