Company Statement on Tas Govt construction investment

Fairbrother welcomes today’s announcement by the State Government of a $3.1 billion infrastructure investment as Tasmania recovers and rebuilds from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In particular, the fast-tracking of government expenditure on areas such as essential services and community infrastructure will be of prime importance to the State’s commercial and civil construction sector.

At Fairbrother, we take seriously our responsibility to continue to invest in the training of our people and ensuring we maintain the employment of our people.

Construction is such an important industry for Tasmania and, almost singularly, provides a catalyst for increased confidence for so many other industries. The downstream impacts of a strong construction industry can be felt across a range of communities and industries.
