VISIT US AT IFEX AND SIGN THE WELLBEING PROMISE

28 February 2024

Hospitality Ulster and Tourism NI will be at IFEX 2024, Northern Ireland’s premier food, drink, retail and hospitality event from Tuesday 5th - Thursday 7th March, taking place at Titanic Exhibition Centre in Belfast.

Come along and visit us on stand C47 to learn more about the Hospitality & Tourism Industry Wellbeing and Development Promise NI.

The Promise is a simple list of commitments which help you to demonstrate that you are a good employer.

Ensuring that your staff are well-supported is fundamental to any successful business, and will ultimately help you to retain your people, and attract new ones. This is particularly true for hospitality which, at its heart, is built on providing fantastic customer service.

The Promise asks employers to:

Ensure that you create a working environment that facilitates respect between all team members
Implement a diversity & inclusion policy
Support a team member on their wider life issues, if appropriate, and provide assistance where possible
Ensure that team members are well-rewarded for their work, considering a wide range of pay and benefits, communicated through a clear pay policy
Where tips are received have a clear policy for their distribution and keep deductions to an absolute minimum and only to cover costs
Identify training and development opportunities for team members at all levels, and promote these to your workforce along with provision of all necessary compliance training to keep our teams safe
Be open to flexible working where you can and offer a range of shift patterns with reasonable notice on changes
Produce and maintain a health & safety policy
Be aware of the mental health challenges associated with working in hospitality and minimise these
Enforce a policy of anti-harassment in the workplace
