Eighty percent of the people managing construction contracts do not read, do not understand or are not following the construction contract in place between the two organizations. This creates problems for both the contractor and the subcontractor (and sub-subcontractor). The Canadian Construction Association publishes standard documents for the construction industry. This is a workshop on the various CCA subcontracts with an emphasis on the roles and responsibilities of the contractor, the subcontractor, and the sub-subcontractor
