For those reasons, mobile training for hospitality is the ideal way to approach all training and onboarding in the industry.

Compliance training is essentially the process of educating new and existing employees on rules, regulations and policies that apply to their job responsibilities and presence onsite.

Managers in the hospitality industry have difficult challenges to meet when it comes to: employee retention, training, and meeting high health and safety standards. The high turnover rate of employees and other factors we'll discuss, contribute to these overall challenges. In order to gain insight into this, let's discuss 4 factors showing the importance of health and safety training in the hospitality industry.

Hospitality NZ have partnered with Intuto to help New Zealand business' achieve this at an affordable price.

Unfortunately, reality is not so ideal. Employee turnover in the hospitality industry is an enormous problem; a 2015 Deloitte study found that turnover can be as high as 31% for restaurant and hotel employees. That's a staggering figure!
