As a $20.1 billion dollar industry, construction provides 8.6% of B.C.'s wealth and employs 236,000 men and women, making it the largest employer in B.C.'s goods sector. In addition to its size and impact, the industry has some key milestones on its horizon. The industry is facing a skilled labour shortfall that, by 2029, will see 23,000 construction industry jobs that cannot be filled by the provincial labour supply.

The governance of the VRCA is vested in a Board of 14 directors elected by the membership. Each Division has a Council comprising a Chair and two Vice Chairs. Project Director at Syncra Construction, leading company operations on a range of ICI and residential projects. 35 years of professional experience as site labour, sub-trade, general contractor, client and consultant along with extensive association work.
The first two projects covered by the agreement are the Pattullo Bridge replacement project and widening of the Trans-Canada Highway from Kamloops to Alberta. Government ministers have since said the Pattullo Bridge and Trans-Canada Highway projects may not be the only projects covered by the CBA. VRCA does not support this CBA because of the way it's been negotiated and its potential impact on industry.
