    Recognized as one of the foundations of national growth, the civil construction industry is essential to the country's socioeconomic dynamics, heavily driving job creation and structural modernization. However, the sector faces growing and structural difficulties related to labor shortages and qualifications—a scenario that worsens in Maceió-AL due to the high demand for vertical developments driven by recent urban transformations and a surging market. In this context, this research aims to analyze the availability of qualified labor and its impacts on civil construction in Maceió, based on the experience of engineering managers of vertical construction projects linked to member companies of the Association of Real Estate Market Companies of Alagoas (ADEMI) in the year 2026. To this end, the study sought to identify the occupations with the greatest recruitment difficulties; assess the impacts of this scarcity on project schedules, costs, and productivity; investigate the mitigation strategies adopted by construction companies; and characterize the future prospects of the sector. Methodologically, this work is classified as applied research, with a quantitative and qualitative approach, and an exploratory and descriptive nature. Procedures involved a literature review and field research using a structured electronic questionnaire. This instrument was administered to a sample of 38 engineers responsible for executing vertical construction projects in Maceió-AL, yielding 22 voluntary survey responses. The results revealed unanimously that companies face recruitment difficulties and have noticed a reduction in the supply of qualified workers over the last five years, with the bricklayer role identified as the most critical bottleneck. A lack of interest from younger generations and low technical qualification were pointed out as the core causes of this deficit, which severely impacts productivity (86.4%), project schedules (77.3%), and construction execution costs (68.2%). Furthermore, current mitigation strategies—such as wage improvements and the adoption of new technologies—are considered poorly effective by 86.4% of managers, culminating in a pessimistic outlook where 81.8% predict that labor scarcity will persist over the next decade. It is concluded that overcoming this deficit sustainably will require a collaborative effort among public authorities, educational institutions, and the private sector, focusing on the social appreciation of workers, continuous technical training, and the progressive industrialization of construction sites.
