It is not biased, it is common sense. The barrier to entry to being an electrician is sufficiently low in the sense that many people have the natural ability to learn and physically do the work.
That must mean the pay to quality of life ratio is insufficient to attract enough workers (including excessively low pay to quality of life ratio during training).
