Reading the heatmap:
Each district is colour-coded by the dollar value of construction work predicted to take place in that district during 2023.
Under 'Supply/Demand Gap', each is colour-coded by the difference between our projection of the size of the local construction workforce and the demand for workers forecast by our Labour Model.

The Manawatū-Whanganui Regional Skills Leadership Group (RSLG) is one of 15 RSLGs set up to identify and support better ways of meeting future skills and workforce needs in our regions and cities.
RSLGs are part of a joined-up approach to labour market planning that sees our workforce, education and immigration systems working together to better meet the differing skills needs across the country.
