Ready-Mix Drivers

Growing demand in BC.

Within the concrete industry and generally within the transportation sector, we are seeing a large employment deficit forming that is, and will continue to impede recruitment and retention of ready-mix concrete truck drivers. Today, association members are seeing roughly 150 driver positions – some of which go unfilled – every year.

Construction

Essential industry for BC.

During the Pandemic, the province of BC deemed construction as “essential,” recognizing the importance of the products and services that we provide to all British Columbians. We are proud of our industry’s resilient, innovative and essential nature that has brought us through a challenging period.
The industry produces about 4M m3 annually, of which half is consumed in the lower mainland. With commercial, institutional and infrastructure projects on the rise, the demand for concrete is increasing too.

Job Creation

A growing economy for BC.

BC concrete, cement and aggregate industries employ over 23,000 direct and indirect workers, using BC raw materials (sand, gravel and water). The concrete industry is an essential participant in the BC Economy. Through direct, indirect and induced economic contribution of over $11 billion, the industry is a critical and essential participant in the BC economy, and a major value chain for small and medium-sized businesses.

Concrete

The ideal building material.

Concrete is one of the most widely used building materials in the world. It’s strength and versatility make it ideal for safe, sustainable, cost-effective buildings and infrastructure. Every town in BC that has a population of 5,000 or more, has a local ready-mix concrete plant that serves the community. There are employment opportunities throughout the province for people looking to work in an entrenched, community industrial pillar.

Our Mandated Objectives

Concrete BC works with associations across Canada and the U.S. to keep their members abreast of best practices, emerging technologies, government regulations, market trends, training and educational opportunities.

The specific objectives mandated for the Association are:

Government Relations

Present industry view to government, both proactively and in response to government proposals. Concrete BC policies can help mitigate potential and negative impacts and promote benefits for both industry and government.

Member Support

Inform members about market trends, regulations and programs that will affect their business. Help members prepare for change and seize new business opportunities.

Business Development

Grow the market for ready-mixed concrete in British Columbia, by sharing the many ways that concrete is the best building material for sustainable construction.

Education and information are important priorities for Concrete BC.

We organize information and training sessions on a wide range of topics, including Basic Concrete Technology, Sustainability, Concrete Pump Operator Safety Training, and Organizational Leadership.
