Construction Labor Rates in Pakistan

Labor rates by most of the people are included in the whole construction cost, but some people ignore this investment and later they remember it. However, labor rates should always be included in the overall construction cost because this construction is impossible to happen.

The Labour community in Pakistan charges hardly in between 200-400 Pkr per square feet area.

In some regions of Pakistan labor is paid on daily wages and the daily charges are 500-800 Pkr and sometime 1000 Pkr due to increasing inflation.

Different regions of Pakistan have different labor rates, but they are most of the time the same because these rates are always in the eye of the government. Pakistani government under the leadership of Imran Khan played a major role in increasing the labor rates.

Very few regions are there having different or lowered labor wages, because of the geographical location of that specific region. In extremely under-developed areas of Pakistan or areas having very low wages due to city-wise low economical rates are different. People of such areas need a very little amount to survive in the economy because their personal expenditures are very minimal.

Labor should be paid a higher amount

Labor in our country is extremely underpaid and the amount of work they deliver is more than the wages. This is all because the labor profession is the most underrated and lowered scale of work in countries like Pakistan.

We should never ignore their importance and try to pay them well accordingly. Some extra wages or extra tips will not cost high for upper-level professionals working in this industry.

Note: Different companies in Pakistan are providing materials at different rates because different companies are manufacturing construction materials on different scales and techniques.
