Employment: shortage of tourism jobs also

Not only the computer science sector is suffering from job shortage. Tourism, which is now booming again across the French Riviera is also suffering from that. Some examples? In Cannes, the Gray d'Albion (hotel-restaurant) for its restaurant section has lost a part of its employees. At the beginning of the summer, some employees -about ten- have preferred go and work in big villas where they were paid twice better or even four times if they worked for Saudi Arabian people. Following the Gray d'Albion, which has not found people to complete its teams of employees, a great deal of Cannes restaurants are looking for a staff.

In Nice, some tour operators were faced to an increase of wages in Monaco. One of the travel agencies networks has lost staff who preferred go and work in Monaco's new travel agencies. No charges exist, so salaries are higher by 1,500 or 2,000 francs, which has motivated employees' departures difficult to fulfill. Shortage comes back again after ten years and exists also in the building sector.
