The Japan Formwork Construction Association (Japan Formwork, President Kenji Minowa) has based on the annual income according to the level of the Construction Career Advancement System (CCUS) issued by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism announced in June last year, based on the facility scale and assumed construction conditions. On this basis, the standard unit price for formwork work was calculated. Shown as average value (Tokyo area) for each of eight target facilities, including apartments and office buildings; see table. To get the average annual income by level, it is said that the unit price will need to increase by 30 to 40% compared to the current unit price.

At the press conference held on the 10th, President Minowa said: ``When signing a contract with the main contractor on the general unit price for a complete set of materials, it is difficult to model the annual income according to the level of CCUS into the unit price. Although this is only a hypothetical standard unit price that has been calculated, we hope the ordering party and the main contractor clearly understand it as a guideline to achieve the annual income set by the government."
The reason behind the association's independent efforts was a sense of crisis that it would be impossible to impart skills as the number of new hires plummeted. Even if the demand for cast-in-place concrete declines, the market itself will not disappear and the company believes that to secure and train skilled workers, it is essential to improve working conditions to attract more workers. attract new employees.
The efforts of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in amending the legal system towards a sustainable construction industry will also be closely monitored, based on discussions at the Council. Central Construction Industry (Chukensin) and other agencies. When ``standard labor costs'' are established in the future as an index to limit low-cost sales that use labor costs as a source of capital, administrative guidance will be strengthened for specialized construction company for the reason of not having a suitable salary. paid to highly skilled workers. It is also expected that To secure such resources, the aim is to promote the visualization of material costs by professional construction companies, which will lead to more appropriate contracting between Contractors.
The standard unit price for formwork is the total construction costs such as labor costs, material costs, formwork transportation costs, general and administrative costs as well as legal welfare costs. Because construction costs vary widely depending on the type of project, the model unit price is calculated by assuming the size, conditions, construction team, etc. of each target facility. We laid out a salary curve that exceeds the lifetime salary of a high school graduate in the manufacturing industry (less than 100 employees) and earns the average annual earnings for each level as well as the rate import and preparation of formwork materials, etc. vary depending on the type of building structure, determined by This is the average value given by the seven companies participating in the group.
