Managing A Flexible Workforce, James Peter Murphy
Managing A Flexible Workforce, James Peter Murphy
Conference papers

When establishments say that they are ‘people based’ and their important assets are their people they usually mean it, yet very little investment has gone into staff management systems. Effective staff management systems can help to reduce the costs involved in recruiting and training employees and, most importantly, help to reduce the result that absenteeism causes on maintaining quality customer service. This special presentation addresses these issues and offers some practical solutions to these challenges.

The findings showed that (1) atmosphere in the restaurant, (2) appealing display of food, and (3) eating habits and lifestyle were more important than personal health when selecting a meal. In addition, this study suggested that the managers were not ready to promote healthy eating because their customers would have been critical of this new service concept
