EPC Firms Face Labour Shortages Amid Surge in Orders

Indian engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) companies are having a hard time finding enough workers.

Even though they need more people than ever before, there aren't enough skilled workers available.

This is making it harder for them to finish projects on time.

Some companies are trying to solve this problem by moving projects closer to where workers live and using more machines to do the work.

But even with these efforts, the shortage is still a big challenge.

The demand for workers has gone up a lot since 2020, especially in big cities like Mumbai and Delhi.

Companies like Larsen and Toubro (L&T) have a lot of orders to fill, but they don't have enough people to do the work.
