And it's ruining the reputation of many builders because of poor quality.

If you are buying a new home you NEED to get it inspected by someone who is reputable, not some shill for the builder who says it is all ok.

One of the main things that is faulty is seals on windows, roof insulation, and various bathroom issues. You intend to live there for the rest of your life you stand to lose tens of thousands just in costs for compensating with overusing HVAC and losing all that heat and cooling through the poor insulation and seals.

Also worth noting to anyone that doesn't know, but this isn't limited to America. Construction industries around the world use a LOT of immigrant labour, both legal and illegal. It would be rare to walk onto a job site and not hear at least one foreign language being spoken. Here in Australia, it's most likely going to be either Arabic or Chinese, but that's only because most of our illegal immigration is overstayed visas, not illegal border entry.

Swedes have to have their 2 year certification plus do an apprenticeship, meanwhile illegals just walk in with fake credentials and work for less than half.

Pretty similar here in Aus regarding time frames.

That said, depends on what the job is. Here in Australia all you really need to work on a job site is a "white card", which is a basic safety course certificate that takes about half a day to get with a rather small fee. To be a tradesman you'd still need the training + apprenticeship + certification, but you could be on a jobsite as a trades assistant or similar.

But the barrier to getting a white card is non-existent, so all it does is legalise work from illegal immigrants. And that's assuming they're working on a jobsite that actually checks for a white card and does an induction like they're meant to.

For commercial construction we even have an electronic badge system called ID06 which is supposed to be linked to your passport or national ID card, and yet they still get through because there aren't enough random checks.

Like what is even the point if you aren't even going to enforce the system in place?
