Amahhotela Ase-US Alungele Isizini Yamaholide Esiqinile

Umbono webhizinisi wamahhotela ase-US uhlala uqinile kuze kube sekupheleni kuka-2023 ngenxa yokukhuphuka kokuhamba kwebhizinisi kanye nokukhetha okunempilo phakathi kwabavakashi bebhizinisi nezokungcebeleka ukuze bahlale emahhotela.

Ngokocwaningo olwenziwe yi-American Hotel & Lodging Association (I-AHLA), u-68% wabantu baseMelika imisebenzi yabo ehilela ukuhamba bathi kungenzeka bahambe ubusuku bonke ngebhizinisi phakathi nezinyanga ezintathu zokugcina zika-2023, kusukela ku-59% ngo-2022. Amahhotela ayikhethelo lendawo yokuhlala ephezulu ku-81% wabahambi bebhizinisi abahloliwe.

Ucwaningo luthole ukuthi ama-32% abantu baseMelika kungenzeka bahambe ubusuku bonke Thanksgiving, ikhuphuke isuka ku-28% ngonyaka odlule, kuyilapho u-34% ingase ihambe ubusuku bonke ngoKhisimusi, isuka ku-31% ngonyaka odlule. Ngaleso sikhathi, ama-37% abantu baseMelika athe kungenzeka bahambe ubusuku bonke beyongcebeleka phakathi nezinyanga ezintathu zokugcina zika-2023, behle kancane besuka ku-39% ngo-2022.

Ucwaningo luphinde lwathola ukuthi izimo zokuvakasha sezibuyele kakhulu ezinkambisweni zangaphambi kobhubhane. Ama-71% abantu baseMelika manje bathi amathuba abo okuhlala emahhotela ayafana nangaphambi kwalolu bhubhane, futhi cishe u-70% wabahambi bebhizinisi bathi abaqashi babo babuyele esimweni sangaphambi kobhubhane noma inani lenyuka lokuhamba kwezamabhizinisi. Lezi yizindaba ezinhle kubanikazi bamahhotela, njengoba ukuhamba ngebhizinisi kungenye yemithombo eyinhloko yemali engenayo yamahhotela.

Okunye okutholakele okubalulekile ocwaningweni lwabantu abadala abayi-4,006 kufaka okulandelayo:

• U-55% wabantu baseMelika abahlela ukuhamba ubusuku bonke beyongcebeleka phakathi nezinyanga ezintathu zokugcina zika-2023 bahlela ukuhlala ehhotela.

• U-45% wabantu baseMelika uthe maningi amathuba okuba bahlale ehhotela ngalesi sikhathi samaholidi kunangonyaka odlule.

• U-44% wabantu baseMelika uthe kungenzeka bathathe uhambo lokungcebeleka/lokuvakasha olwengeziwe kulesi sikhathi samaholide kunangonyaka odlule.

• U-59% walabo abahlela ukuhamba ubusuku bonke ukuze bathole uhlelo lokubonga ukuze bahlale nomndeni noma abangani, kuyilapho u-30% behlela ukuhlala ehhotela.

• U-62% walabo abahlela ukuhamba ubusuku bonke ngohlelo lukaKhisimusi ukuze bahlale nomndeni noma abangani, kuyilapho u-26% uhlela ukuhlala ehhotela.

Amahhotela enza ngaphezu kwakho konke ukuze anakekele izivakashi ngendlela encomekayo njengoba uhambo lusondela emazingeni angaphambi kwe-COVID, futhi le nhlolovo igcizelela lelo qiniso.

Amahhotela aseMelika acishe abe ngu-62,500 ayindawo egqamile emnothweni wezwe. Ukuze baqhubeke nokukhula, badinga ukuqasha abantu abaningi, kepha ukushoda kwabasebenzi ezweni lonke kuvimbela amahhotela ukuthi aphinde athole yonke imisebenzi esilahlekelwe yilolu bhubhane. Kunezinyathelo ezimbalwa iCongress engazithatha ukuze isize ukubhekana nezinselelo zabasebenzi bemboni yethu. Lokho kufaka phakathi ukusungula ukukhululwa kwabasebenzi ababuyayo kwe-H-2B, ukuphasisa Umthetho Wokugunyaza Umsebenzi Wokufuna Indawo yokukhosela, kanye nokuphasisa Umthetho Wokuthuthukiswa Kwe-H-2 Ukuze Ukhulule Abaqashi (HIRE).

Ngokusho kwe-Impela, cishe kunemisebenzi engama-85,000 yamahhotela evuliwe njengamanje ezweni lonke.

Kusukela ngoSepthemba, i-United States ibe nezikhala zemisebenzi eziyizigidi ezingu-9.6, kodwa zingu-6.4 million kuphela abantu abangasebenzi okufanele bazigcwalise, ngokusho kweBureau of Labor Statistics.

Kusukela ngoSepthemba, amaholo amaphakathi kazwelonke abengu-$23.36/ngehora.

Selokhu kwaqala lolu bhubhane, amaholo amaphakathi amahhotela (+24.6%) akhuphuke ngaphezu kwama-30% ngokushesha kunamaholo ajwayelekile kuwo wonke umnotho jikelele (+18.8%).
