With summer fast approaching, tourism professionals continue to recruit for the season. In an attempt to attract seasonal workers, hoteliers and restaurateurs are betting on higher wages and better working conditions.

This summer, 2,000 are needed for the hotel and restaurant sector alone. A lack of staff that has worsened since the health crisis three years ago. 110,000 permanent jobs have disappeared in the hotel, restaurant and catering industry in France since 2010. The Union des métiers et des industries de l'hôtellerie says it is necessary for seasonal workers to move and live close to their place of work.
