Within the construction industry work is performed by 'contractors' who fall into one of two types:<br />

[[General Contractors]] which manage large jobs (new construction) requiring the coordination of a large number of sub-contractors.

The construction industry is dominated by hard-working capitalists and in general construction workers tend to be conservative and Christian. This may be because construction is an honest trade that requires hard labor and a strength of spirit derived from faith (Jesus was a carpenter as well as the Savior).
