5star Exploaitation
by manuj bahl on Jul 25, 2006 05:29 PM   Permalink

Hospitality indistry is going through the major revamp right now because of the never ending Business available in the market to be tapped. Without doubt Hospitality industry is the most underpaid industry in world. 12 to 14 hrs shift are a norm rather then a exception.In india Hospitality industry is very much running on the understaffed manpower and the present Guest is Staff ratio is criminally short. each employess is expected to work for the 3 People's work 24/7.. The only respite is for the employess who are not in the Opearational departments like Sales & Marketing and Human resources who always present a very rosy picture infront of the world as they are not forced to work more then 9 Hrs.. Media is easily manipulated to show how wonderful this industry is. With a Normal Graduation in ypur kitty in todays world you can have a Job which can promise you at least Inr 8000-10000 as starting salary. But in Hospitality industry its minimalistic Inr2500-4000. As a hospitality professional with over 05 yrs experince in this Industry i would be the last one to recommend this to any potential employee.
