Project risk & profitability in focus.
Economic and policy trends drive many construction and design industry business risks, from labor to material costs to spending on projects. In turn, financial pressures — including labor shortages, turnover, and inexperienced skilled labor — can translate into jobsite injuries and third-party liability (construction defects, design errors or omissions, bodily injury, and property damage).
What can the construction sector expect to see in 2026? What risks will be prevalent? How can they prepare to mitigate risks in the coming year in construction?
Our 2026 Construction & Design Market Update (opens a new window)examines these and other questions and offers insights from Lockton’s construction and design specialists.
