Investing in people and technology is essential for achieving better outcomes in today’s rapidly changing environment.
The US construction industry is expected to grow 4.7% by 2033. But to take full advantage of that opportunity, construction firms must manage mounting pressure around labor shortages, rising material costs, and tightening deadlines. With labor as the largest controllable expense, optimizing workforce operations is critical. UKG delivers human capital management and workforce management solutions designed to meet the day-to-day realities of construction. From scheduling and payroll to visibility and engagement, our tools will improve the performance and potential of every job site.

Elevate the frontline worker experience

Frontline construction workers face constant changes, such as new job sites, unpredictable shifts, and tight project timelines. UKG’s human capital management suite reduces friction in their day by offering mobile self-service tools where workers can view schedules, check pay information, request time off, and clock in or out—all from their phones. Supervisors can share real-time updates, minimizing confusion and aligning teams across locations. With easier access to information and fewer manual touchpoints, workers feel more supported and in control of their day.

Optimize your workforce with smarter planning

Construction projects move fast, and conditions change daily. UKG workforce management provides real-time visibility into labor activity across all job sites, so teams can respond quickly and keep projects moving. Behind the scenes, AI analyzes historical data to anticipate where labor will be needed most. It can flag potential gaps in shift coverage and suggest adjustments before problems arise. This kind of early insight helps managers make timely decisions and avoid unnecessary delays.

Simplify payroll for domestic and international operations

Construction payroll often involves multiple job sites, varying pay rates, union rules, and local compliance requirements. UKG global payroll is built to handle that complexity, helping teams process payroll accurately in up to 160 countries and over 120 currencies. With a more efficient system in place, your team can spend less time troubleshooting and more time supporting the business.
