Future employment in the hospitality sector
Different sources estimate that the hospitality sector employs approximately 1.6 to 1.8 million people. Between 1991 and 2001 employment grew by between 1-1.5% per annum.
Employment in the sector is forecast to grow by a further 4% through to 2010. In the short-term employment levels are expected to decline but will be offset by the increases in the second half of the decade. However, some forecasts within the sector are for even stronger growth.
