"https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-57555608 A Michelin-star restaurant has said it will no longer open at lunchtimes due to a shortage of staff. David Moore, the founder of Pied à Terre in London, said he decided to halt the restaurant's lunchtime menu to "preserve" his depleted workforce. Mr Moore said Brexit was "definitely the biggest" factor behind staff shortages, and he said the "heartbeat" of the hospitality industry was "young kids" coming from abroad to work in restaurants and bars to gain life experience and new skills." Not to mention lack of staff that are willing to work for next to fuck all  | |||

"“ We want employers to focus on training and investing in our domestic work force, rather than relying on labour from abroad” Such an obvious statement to make "And the training is given once they are employed. Sadly when they advertise for staff the response in the UK is,,, erm no thanks. Working in restaurants is considered a temporary job in the Uk unless you’re a chef. The guy quoted said money isn’t drawing people in either. | |||

"There's been bad press around the hospitality trade for a few years now. Low wages, bullying, long hours, little prospects etc. It seems to have gained a tag of being at the bottom of the UK jobs ladder, whereas around the world, ita a more attractive proposition. "

It’s very easy to change this, however many hospitality businesses would rather take the easy option.

So it’s all about the wages? Would you do shift work in London for £9.50/hour? If so, apply within. No I wouldn’t, they didn’t have trouble finding staff before though ? Eastern European minimum wage levels are well short of ours. £9.50/hr is probably more attractive to them. The solution here, is to align an attractive wage with making the hospitality profession as equally attractive, so UK workers want to work in those jobs. Ah, so we have to increase wages and increase costs to the consumer and in turn make eating out too expensive for some people? Not necessarily. Ever been to a Michelin restaurant? Yep, some are extremely expensive, others less so. Are you suggesting that wages should only be increased at ‘high end’ restaurants or across the board? Not at all. But when a Michelin restaurant is paying less than MacDonalds and Amazon, then its right to question that. Bringing in the cheapest labour does not help UK workers. You have to make the trade attractive to be in. Make your workers feel valued, train them, show them a career path and you will get results. Taking away the "long hours, bad pay" charactisation of hospitality is a good starting point. True, but that will make it more expensive for the consumer, let’s hope people are will to pay more for their meals now they will be served by English staff instead of staff from the EU Why would it inflate prices for consumers? Those rich people you hate so much, the ones who own them will just have to take less profit. 2019 figures say the company has the funds to make that happen." rich buisnessmen take less profit ??

"Weve worked in hospitality in 2nd jobs for years on relatively low wages.. Its not just wages that will help recruit but also wages in respect of working un sociable hours. Our social life died and getting to see family was awkward to arrange. Not only that, the job security is non existent for some as employers binned Fem off rather than furlough, and Male was self employed in security/door work so received no money as it was a 2nd job and not eligible for covid support. Weve both improved our money income with improved positions on our main jobs. Good luck to those who work in hospitality.. but not for us anymore. " I am also somone that spent ten years of there life working as a chef. Its shit I now get payed more per hour ing a private garden than i did as a kitchen manager. No more weeekends and late nights. If they want people to work for them they need to offer more than poverty wages. Why would you work in a michellin star restaraunt with the stress and bs that brings to be payed less than Macdonalds | |||
