Sahara Tourist Destination v Challenges and Solutions in Hospitality Recruitment

The hospitality in the algerian sahara sector has had a rollercoaster ride over the last few years. From shortages in seasonal staff.

Hospitality is all about the people. Whether it’s customer-facing or behind the scenes, people are what make the difference in hospitality. And yet one of the biggest challenges facing the hospitality in sahara is hiring staff. More specifically, hiring the right staff and, crucially, then retaining them.?

There needs to be more emphasis on developing home-grown talent for example in the city of El-Oued. That means educating school leavers and job seekers and convincing them that hospitality is a viable? career option for them. It also means offering good training and development programmes for existing staff so that their talents can be built upon for the future.

Many jobs in the hospitality in Sahara are low-paid, irregular and unreliable. Zero contract hours, lack of benefits such as sick pay and holiday allowance and unsociable hours, are all barriers that can prevent the right type of people applying for roles but when advertising for hospitality roles it is important to highlight the key benefits of the role and what makes the establishment and offering stand out compared to others. Incentives such as higher wages, tip-sharing, free staff meals and discounts are all incentives that could help to attract the right candidate. At Recruitment we can advise on the best way to advertise your hospitality role to ensure a high calibre of staff.
