Dublin is seeing a new wave of housing development, and that means more construction jobs across the city.

According to the Central Statistics Office (CSO), 36,284 new homes were completed in Ireland in 2025, a 20.4% increase on the previous year. More than 57% of these homes were built in Dublin and the Mid-East region, showing just how much construction activity is centred around the capital.

Large regeneration projects are also starting to move forward. One example is the Southwest Gate development on the Naas Road, which includes plans for over 1,100 apartments as part of the wider City Edge regeneration project.

Projects like these require large teams of labourers, tradespeople, apprentices, and subcontractors. Before anyone can work on a construction site in Ireland, they must hold a valid Safe Pass card.

If you’re planning to work in construction, Safe Pass certification is usually the first step.

We’ve written a new article explaining how Dublin’s housing growth is creating new construction opportunities and why Safe Pass training is essential.

Ireland delivered over 36,000 new homes in 2025, the highest level in more than a decade.

That’s real progress, but demand is still outpacing supply. What does that mean in practical terms? More construction activity, more sites, and more demand for workers.

And there’s one thing every worker needs before stepping onto site: a valid Safe Pass card.

Whether you’re starting out, returning to construction, or looking to move into site work, completing a Safe Pass course is your first step.

We’ve broken down what the latest housing figures mean for workers in our latest post:

If you work in construction and want to secure local authority housing work, there’s something important you should understand.

Many councils now use a Pre-Approved Contractors Register before awarding housing construction or maintenance projects. If your business isn’t compliant with safety and documentation requirements, you may not even be considered for the work.

Typical requirements include:

✔ A valid Safety Statement and risk assessments
✔ Evidence of Safe Pass certification for workers
✔ Relevant CSCS cards for plant operators
✔ Up-to-date equipment inspection certificates
✔ Completion of a PSCS Prequalification Questionnaire

Something as simple as an expired Safe Pass card can prevent a contractor from qualifying for council housing works.

We’ve published a detailed article explaining:

• What a Pre-Approved Contractors Register is
• Why councils use them
• What documentation contractors usually need
• Why Safe Pass certification is a key compliance requirement

If you work in construction or plan to apply for housing work, this is worth understanding.

If we’re serious about building more homes in Ireland, we need to be serious about training the people who will build them.

A recent report highlighted Transition Year students completing Safe Pass training as part of an initiative to introduce young people to construction careers. It’s a simple but important step. No Safe Pass card means no legal access to a construction site. It’s the first requirement for anyone starting out.

Students, apprentices, job seekers and experienced trades all need valid certification before stepping onto site. Getting your Safe Pass training done early removes delays and shows you’re ready to work safely and responsibly.

We’ve published a detailed article on our website explaining why early Safe Pass training matters for apprenticeships, workforce planning and Ireland’s housing goals.

If you’re thinking about working in construction, renewing your card, or booking training for your team, now is the time.

The updated plan builds on progress made since 2023 and focuses on opening up construction careers to more people, improving training pathways, and supporting long-term skills development in the sector.

We’ve put together a clear summary of the key updates and what they mean for workers, jobseekers, and employers.
