New support available to employers to fill gaps in customer service
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Tourism is vital for the economic success and development of Alberta.
In 2019, Alberta’s tourism industry contributed $8.4 billion to its GDP and 82,000 jobs.
But following the COVID-19 pandemic, labour shortages have been standing in the way of the hospitality and tourism sector; so the provincial government is extending Being Human Services a support that local employers can utilize.
The support includes a 16-week program called Pathways to Success, and it’s intended to fill a local and province-wide gap in customer service.
