Links between inadequate training and problems such as sexual harassment, unfair dismissals, under-staffing, poor food hygiene, and theft are also identified. Results indicate that hospitality employees are commonly required to work without sufficient training, and that training has a positive effect on employee relations by reducing workplace problems and improving staff retention.[CD-ROM]HospitalityWorkplace problemsTrainingDismissalTurnoverConference ContributionOpenAccess
