I am thrilled to announce the latest episode of the Tech On Toast podcast is now live, and it's a must-listen for anyone in the hospitality industry.
In this episode, we dive into the crucial topic of shift patterns and retention in the industry, featuring insightful discussions with industry experts Rebecca Billingsley from Planday and Kris Hall, the founder of the Burnt Chef Project.
Here are three key takeaways from this enlightening episode:
Mental Health Awareness and Support: The episode sheds light on the alarming statistic that 85% of hospitality employees have experienced symptoms of poor mental health in the past year. Kris from the Burnt Chef Project emphasizes the importance of initiating conversations around mental health and providing resources for support to prevent crises.
Advanced Shift Planning: Rebekah from Plan Day highlights the impact of advanced shift planning on employee retention. By planning schedules weeks in advance and incorporating employee preferences, businesses can create a more conducive work-life balance for their staff, leading to increased productivity and reduced turnover rates.
Innovative Industry Practices: The episode showcases examples of industry leaders like Luke Holder at Limewood Hotel and The Ninth, who have implemented forward-thinking strategies such as three-month rota planning and labor redeployment to enhance operational efficiency and employee satisfaction.
This episode serves as a wake-up call for the industry to prioritise employee well-being, embrace modern shift planning practices, and adopt innovative approaches to workforce management.
