HHA Supports Hospitality Rising
The hospitality sector does not need to be reminded of the problems we face in attracting, hiring and retaining talent. Without dramatic action these issues will not be fixed, and will deepen over the coming years.
We all know how great jobs and careers in our sector can be, but the public perception sadly doesn’t reflect this. When we recruit, we are fighting against a well-worn narrative: low pay, long hours, low morale, poor working conditions, high turnover, no career progression.
That’s where Hospitality Rising comes in: to launch an ambitious national media campaign to redress outdated public opinions and double the number of people who would consider a career in hospitality (currently 1 in 5).

HHA Supports calls for a Minister for Hospitality
The UK hospitality industry. Responsible for around 3m jobs, generating £130bn in activity, resulting in £38bn in taxation. Yet, unlike the Arts or Sports, we do not have a dedicated Minister.
We are asking that a Minister for Hospitality be created for the current, and successive governments.
A dedicated Minister would liaise with industry representatives. We believe such a Minister would have been beneficial to Government & Industry during the pandemic.
As the UK seeks to encourage investment & tourism back to the UK in coming years, the vision that UK hospitality industry portrays of the UK is excellence, innovation, inspiration.
We need a Minister who can listen to concerns on taxation & legislation and bring forward suggestions to the chancellor and policy makers on our behalf.
