But I will pay you only 25% of what you are worth!

Six months later, in the midst of economic downturn, over 150 million people lost their jobs and more than double this number are suffering to make ends meet. People are forced to choose between keeping their jobs in exchange for a drastic pay cut or accepting significant challenges for less pay.

As the coronavirus pandemic spread around the globe with a force of a tsunami, more than 100 countries adopted strict lockdown measures to slow down COVID-19 transmission.

Governments hit the pause button on social gatherings, schools, sports events, and religious services. Borders were closed, as a result, business activities declined and economies crippled.

Hardly a day goes by without some negative information about the impact of the coronavirus on the travel and hospitality worlds.

Despite all this negativity we hope that it’s only a matter of time for the hospitality world to overcome the difficulties that COVID-19 brings. After all, the hotel industry has experienced its share of crises, including terrorism, SARS virus and economic downturns, only to evolve even more and move forward.
