This summer, the hospitality sector in Europe faces a huge shortage of workers, which affects some of the continent’s major tourist destinations. Reports indicate that Spain, Italy, and Croatia are having a hard time finding waiters and other related staff categories.
That means the hospitality staff is in high demand after the boom in tourism following the pandemic. In Spain, a forecast shows that tens of thousands of pub and restaurant positions will not be filled even in 2024, recurrently bringing problems with the staff every summer.
At the beginning of the season, many restaurants in the Italian region of Abruzzo were understaffed. A similar situation seems to be happening in Croatia, where the demand for waiters is reportedly very high, and the waiter profession has become the most required one in 2023.
Others turn to foreign labor to meet this demand. This route has been controversial. In one breath, it is averred that foreign workers are a necessity. The demand cannot be met otherwise. On the other hand, another source, emanating from the Workers’ Commissions, condemned the failure to regularise their working conditions and questioned the need for foreign workers.
There is a drive to train migrants in Abruzzo for positions in the hotel sector, and new research data also reveals that waiter positions are among the most in-demand and hardest-to-fill positions in many European countries.
Positions in hospitality are in short supply in Belgium, Bulgaria, Germany, Finland, Luxembourg, Denmark, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Cyprus, The Netherlands, Croatia, Norway, Portugal, Greece, France, Italy, and Malta.
