First, activity levels reported by quantity surveyors (who tend to see construction work at an early stage in the process) edged lower. Secondly, the deterioration in workloads was fairly broad-based, with four out of the six regions in the survey posting negative net balances; only London/South East recorded even modestly rising workloads. Third, the drop in workloads was visible in most segments of the market. Finally, output and employment expectations for the coming twelve months remain positive but profit margins are projected to stay under pressure.
