Breaking NEWS!!! Distributed July 2005
Plumbing jobs/employment - an additional 110,000 Plumbers needed by 2012
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the demand for experienced Plumbers
is likely to increase by 10 - 20% over the next seven years. Based on the labor
statistics from 2002, an additional 110,000 plumbers could be needed by the
year 2012. About 70% of these Plumbers would be working for Contractors engaged
in new construction, repair, modernization, or maintenance work.
As the demand for experienced Plumbers increases, so does that of Plumbing
Sales People, Estimators, Project Managers, Designers/Drafters, Foremen,
Superintendents, etc... Although much of this growth is likely due to
residential and commercial new construction in the United States, there's
always a need to modernize existing structures which provides consistent work
for industry professionals. With the demand for skilled Plumbers outpacing the
supply, compensation levels are expected to increase as employers continue to
get more aggressive in their recruiting strategies.
Passive forms of advertising such as an employment ad in the local newspaper,
job posting on a career site or a HELP WANTED sign on the back of their trucks
simply aren't enough to attract new employees, and hiring a professional
recruiter to track down skilled workers isn't within the budget for most of
these companies. So what can Plumbing companies do to find the key people they
need to hire? One company may have the answer.
HVAC Agent (www.hvacagent.com) started a unique program in 2001 for the
heating, air conditioning and refrigeration industry which has now grown to be
the largest HVACR employment resource in the United States listing over 2,700
available jobs from about 1,300 HVACR employers. "Many of our HVACR Contractors
have been asking for several years if we could do the same thing for the
Plumbing industry", said Mike Mayberry, President and Founder of HVAC Agent.
"Since the demand for experienced Plumbers is very similar as that of HVACR
professionals, we made the decision to expand our efforts into the Plumbing
industry."
Set to launch in late summer 2005, Plumbing Agent will focus on helping
Plumbing Companies in the same way that HVAC Agent has for HVACR Contractors,
Wholesale Suppliers/Distributors, Building Owners, Engineering Firms and
Property Management Companies over the past four years. The model for Plumbing
Agent, just like that of HVAC Agent is very different from a traditional
Internet Career Site or Staffing Firm.
For potential Job Seekers the program is always free and works very similar to
a traditional Internet Career Site. They can create an account online, as well
as search and apply for available positions. However, in the cases where a Job
Seeker doesn't have Internet access or is uncomfortable adding their
information online, Plumbing Agents staff will gladly take their information by
phone or the Job Seeker can fax their resume toll-free.
The biggest difference is with how the Plumbing companies/employers will use
this program. Just like with HVACR companies, most Plumbing companies have very
limited time and resources and no dedicated recruiting staff to find
experienced employees. It's typically the Owner/Managers responsibility to not
only place the employment ads, but also sift through all the
resumes/applications to narrow the stack down to those people they want to talk
to. It's just one more thing to try and get done in their typical 60-80 hour
work week. Recruiting experienced Plumbing professionals has become a full-time
job and yet very few companies can justify the expense of having a full-time
recruiter on staff let alone the consistent advertising budget necessary for
success.
For this reason, Plumbing Agent will essentially become the recruiting
department for these employers, providing them with the same recruiting
resources as any Fortune 500 company would have; including a dedicated staff to
not only manage the recruitment advertising efforts, but to also do the initial
evaluation of each potential applicant based on the employers job requirements.
In the evaluation process, Plumbing Agents staff will compare each potential
applicants resume/profile to the specific job requirements to eliminate those
who "Clearly" cannot do the job. As with HVAC Agent, Plumbing Agent estimates
that they will eliminate nearly 60% of the applicants evaluated, saving their
employers hundreds, if not thousands of man hours each year. Unlike a Career
Site, the employers never need to login to Plumbing Agents website to post jobs
or search a resume database. The employers simply tell their dedicated Account
Manager what types of people they need and Plumbing Agent begins emailing or
faxing applicant profile/resumes within 24-48 hours.
To fund this program, each employer will contribute a one-time account setup
fee of $89 and an additional $89/month for each geographic area that they need
to hire Plumbing professionals. That's it. There's no additional cost for each
job posting or each person that they hire. Plumbing Agent then combines the
monthly fees paid by all its members to increase the groups' employment
advertising budget and staff necessary to manage it, essentially consolidating
the recruiting efforts for everyone. The more employers that join the network,
the larger the budget becomes. Through their consistency in advertising online
as well as many traditional non-internet sources, Plumbing Agent will be able
to use this budget to locate and attract thousands of experienced applicants
for their employers nationwide. In comparison, HVAC Agent started out in late
2001 with only a few members and an annual advertising budget of about $25,000.
In less than four years, that budget has reached nearly $500,000 with a
dedicated staff of 10 people that now evaluate over 400,000 potential HVACR
applicants each year for its employers. Based on the fact that the HVACR
industry and the Plumbing industry a very similar, Plumbing Agent feels that
its growth will be in line with that of HVAC Agent and likely much faster due
to the cross-over between the two.
