Abstract
In recent years, a number of changes have occurred in the construction industry in Hungary which had adverse effects. Some of the causes are: the shortage of professionals, the low prestige of construction work and the lack of adequately trained workforce. In addition, the migration of construction workers has immensely increased both within the country and in Europe. The purpose of my study is to examine the causes of the migration of professionals in the construction industry and the effects it has on economy. I will present the opinion of construction company leaders and workers as well.
