Andreas Züllig will leave his position as President of Hotelleriesuisse at the end of the year. (archive image)

In an interview published on CH Media on Friday, Züllig said that many employees from sectors such as logistics are returning to the hotel industry. The nation’s leading hotel operator estimates that 5 to 10 percent of job openings are currently unfilled. Züllig said companies can prevent this situation with shorter opening times.

“The situation was bad after the corona crisis,” he said looking back. At that time, all companies were looking for employees at the same time. As the association announced a year ago, six out of ten companies had to adjust their offers in 2021 due to a shortage of skilled workers. At the time, Hotelleriesuisse was complaining more about the mismatch between the skills required and those on offer, rather than the lack of available skilled workers.

The association campaigned for a relaxation of immigration laws last summer. Third-country nationals with Swiss qualifications are said to be important skilled workers for Swiss companies.
