520			_aA new report commissioned by the EU has revealed that the UK is the second-worst member state with regard to resource and labour efficiency in the construction sector. The traditional craft-based structures and processes still used in the UK, Ireland, France and Spain consume significantly more labour and materials than the more industrialised approach adopted in Germany and the Nordic countries. Rates of pay are higher in these countries, and staff need less on-site supervision. Contains bar charts.
