Abstract

The hospitality workforce crisis has been an ongoing discussion for academics, researchers, and industry practitioners. Globally, the hospitality sector is considered one of the fastest-growing, but it is experiencing severe workforce challenges. To address these issues, it is necessary to consider the factors affecting employees and discouraging prospective staff. This chapter examines factors influencing the workforce shortage and provides suggestions for addressing the issues to make the industry attractive and sustainable.
