The authorities of the capital are preparing a plan to solve the problem of the personnel crisis at construction sites, which provides for the rejection of migrant labor, Andrey Bochkarev, vice-mayor of the capital for urban planning policy and construction, said in an interview with RBC. Due to the outflow of migrants during the pandemic, about 40% of workers are now missing at construction sites in the capital.
According to Bochkarev, construction should require three times fewer people and be carried out twice as fast due to high qualifications and new construction technologies. Such work will be paid two to three times higher. According to him, such an experiment is already underway at a number of facilities. In addition, it is necessary to change the system of training of construction engineers. Also in an interview with RBC, Bochkarev told how in a month they were able to build the largest covid hospital in Moscow - the Voronovskoye center. Such construction "in peacetime" would take three years. According to him, the mayor's office did not rule out that someday this hospital would have to be burned down due to the contagiousness of covid-19 .Read more about the "storm" during the construction of the infectious center, renovation and migrants at the construction site in the full version of the interview.
