Tourism & Hospitality Workforce
In 2014/15, there were 6,859 people who make up the tourism and
hospitality workforce in Central Coast NSW which is a significant
increase from recent years where there has been a marked
downturn in employment in the tourism and hospitality sectors.
Developments which provide additional full time tourism and
hospitality employment positions on the Central Coast and which
also seek to encourage job seekers to consider tourism and
hospitality professions to be a professional career will provide
economic stimulation to the region.
