TY - THES AU - Wirth, Katharina T1 - Cooperation between gastronomy businesses in alpine and urban lake regions towards staff exchange DA - 2020 CY - Chur PB - Fachhochschule Graubünden A3 - Hörburger, Norbert AB - Due to seasonal fluctuations, gastronomy businesses in the alpine region have problems finding qualified employees as they cannot offer them a full-year contract. In contrast, gastronomy businesses in urban lake regions have a similar problem during wintertime. This thesis aims to explore the challenges seasonal gastronomy businesses face and to investigate the advantages, challenges, and the potential of cooperation and shared staffing models between alpine and urban lake regions with the example of Zurich and Lucerne and the Grisons. The paper is based on the knowledge derived from various expert interviews, and it is supplemented by an online employee survey and background literature review. The findings guide gastronomy businesses to overcome the problem of qualified full-year employees, give recommendations for possible forms of collaborations, and show to what extent and under which circumstances these managerial solutions are likely to be implemented.
