Dec 2017 Hospitality Review - Dig

ER practitioners in the THA continue to put in place proactive management support of the employment cycle from entry to exit, and address any identified gaps that can reduce potential mitigation exposure including adverse action. It is understood that to grow the industry brand, there needs to be continued and increased focus on high-end work to support management layers in the industry and there will be a requirement for additional resource to manage this. This results in: • As part of the GCE process we are proposing that venues will address workplace relations where, subject to genuine gap analysis that includes ER Audit compliance checks, gaps are identified for training and support as a structured process for industry members who need it. With a major ingredient for apprentice and trainee success being better skilled and competent leadership of venues within the industry this is a critical area of focus.

Building new Employment Sources I spoke in the last two magazines about one of the major outcomes for the THA Workforce Plan being the re-engagement of the industry with employment services – these employment services have a huge client list and should be a major source of employees for the hospitality industry. An untapped and unused workforce with employment agencies that must be made available and attractive to venues for employment – the industry needs to be demystified and the industry needs to accept a new employment dynamic using employment type agencies. We have done the initial work to get people enthused and informed – now for the difficult bits, training options and placement. We receive great feedback from participants and have detailed info about training needs - TasTAFE have been tasked with identifying the training options available and we are nearly there. Following the training, THA will advertise the availability of trained staff to members first.

THE THA WOULD LIKE TO WISH OUR MEMBERS AND CORPORATE PARTNERS A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR PLEASE NOTE, THE THA OFFICE WILL BE CLOSED FROM FRIDAY, DECEMBER 22 2017 THROUGH TO TUESDAY, JANUARY 2, 2018
