Hotels offering four-day working weeks to attract staff

The pandemic led to a huge volume of staff leaving the sector

Executive chefs can anticipate a salary of anywhere between €75,000 to €90,000.

Hotels in Ireland have begun trialling the four-day working week in an effort to attract the required staff following the significant outflow of workers in the sector during the Covid-19 pandemic.

It comes as a new industry survey shows salaries in the hotel and catering industry soar as attracting and retaining staff puts ‘severe pressure’ on Irish businesses.
