Today, our policy advisor took part in #EUSEW25 session, “People to power-up Europe: making the transition a reality with skilled workers.”

Our message is clear: visibility, predictability, and confidence are key for electrical contractors to hire and train the #workforce Europe needs.

On the occasion of #InternationalElectriciansDay we asked out members: Why should people choose to become electricians?

The reasons are many: it’s a purposeful and stable career, with diverse paths, plenty of opportunities for lifelong learning... But let’s hear it directly from them! 👇

#DYK the average age of an electrician in Europe is 41❓

👷‍♂️The sector is ageing, and we need to attract young people to the sector to tackle #workforce shortages.

The #VETStrategy should make technical education attractive, particularly in key areas linked to the #clean industrial agenda
