Abstract
Job creation in tourism and leisure activities has received considerable attention since the publication of the government's Action for Jobs in Tourism. Yet there remains considerable controversy over the scale of job creation and the nature of the jobs supported. This article attempts to cast some light on these issues by drawing on recent research at the Institute of Manpower Studies, on available statistical data, information from in-company case studies and parallel research. The article concludes that recent job growth has largely focused on the hotel and catering sector and has largely but not exclusively stressed part-time work. Future prospects for slow employment growth in this sector look good.
