- Employee Well-being is Crucial: Timothy R. Andrews states that employers will be under scrutiny for how they treat their staff in the coming months. It's essential for employers to up their game to be seen as responsible and caring.
- Changing Perceptions: Susan points out that the current crisis offers an opportunity to break free from the stereotype of hospitality jobs as low-paying, high-stress roles. Employers who take the initiative will emerge as the preferred choice for employees.
- Cleanliness & Preparedness: Timothy notes that how a restaurant or pub handles COVID-19 procedures reflects not just on customer perception but also affects employee morale. A clear system can ease the discomfort and pressure on staff.
