Imisebenzi yoshishino lokuhamba ikhokelela kumvuzo ophezulu kunye nesigxina esisisigxina sokuphumelela kwezemali, ukukhupha imbuyekezo kuzo zombini imveliso kunye nokhathalelo lwempilo, ngokutsho kwe-US Travel Association's Made in America: Igalelo lokuHamba kuPhuhliso lwaBasebenzi.
Uhambo lwase-US lukhuphe uphononongo ngokuchasene nomva weVeki yeSizwe yokuHamba noKhenketho yoNyaka yama-36. Ingxelo-yesibini kuthotho lwe-US Travel's "Made in America" ebonisa ukubaluleka kokuhamba kuqoqosho lwase-US-ifumanisa ukuba imisebenzi yeshishini lokuhamba ibonelela ngendlela eya kwimpumelelo kwizigidi zabantu baseMelika.
Phakathi kweziphumo eziphezulu:
• Travel is the No. 1 industry for first jobs. Nearly four in 10 workers got their start in travel and tourism. Moreover, they are good first jobs that give workers skills, confidence and experience that are essential to successful careers in a broad spectrum of occupations.
• Individuals who began their career in travel have gone on to earn a peak average salary of $82,400 by the time they were 50 years old—higher than those who started in manufacturing, health care and other industries.
• Nearly a third of Americans (31%) re-entering the workforce do so through a job in the travel industry—compared to just 12% in manufacturing and 8% in health care. Travel jobs have the flexibility, availability, diversity and focus on practical skills to launch a rewarding career.
Le ngxelo ikwabandakanya uphononongo lwabantu abaye balandela imisebenzi kushishino lokuhamba kwaye bafezekisa iphupha labo laseMelika ngenxa yoko.
Njengabaninzi baseMelika, umsebenzi wam wokuqala wawukwishishini lokuhamba-njengomlindi kwichibi lehotele-kwaye kwandinika isiseko sezakhono kunye namathuba akhokelela kumsebenzi omde kunye nomvuzo," watsho uMongameli we-US Travel Association kunye ne-CEO uRoger. Dow. “Imisebenzi yeshishini lokuhamba ifikeleleka ngokukhethekileyo kubo bonke abantu baseMelika, kwaye ibonelela ngendlela eya kubomi obuqinileyo, ubomi bonke. Ngamafutshane, ukuhamba lisango eliya kwiphupha laseMelika. ”
Ezinye zezinto eziphambili ezithathwa kwingxelo:
• Travel industry jobs provide flexibility for pursuit of higher education and training. Of the 6.1 million Americans working part-time while pursuing higher education in 2018, more than half were employed in travel-related industries. Nearly one in five (18%) travel industry employees currently attend school, compared to the 8% of workers attending school in other sectors of the economy.
• The travel industry is diverse and accessible compared to other industries. Nearly half (46%) of travel industry employees have a high school degree or less, compared to 30% of employees of the rest of the economy. Travel also has a greater share of Hispanics, African Americans and multi-ethnic individuals than the rest of the economy.
• Experience in travel fosters entrepreneurs. Seventeen percent of Americans whose first job was in travel now own their own business, and 19% consider themselves entrepreneurs—again, a higher figure than manufacturing and health care. Of women who started their career in the travel industry, 14% now consider themselves entrepreneurs, compared to only 10% of those who started out in health care.
• The travel industry fills the skills gap. Through training, education, certification programs and firsthand experience, the industry is providing resources and opportunities for high school and college students, minorities, females and individuals with barriers to employment such as the lack of a formal education.
"Izibalo ziyoyikeka, kodwa kuxa ufunda iiprofayili apho impembelelo yokwenyani yeshishini lokuhamba kwimisebenzi icaca," utshilo uDow. “Ibali ngalinye libonelela ngomfanekiso wezinto ezinokubakho ushishino lokuhamba olunabo kuye nabani na ofuna ukuphila ubomi obuqinileyo.
"Le ngxelo iphinda ibethelele into yokuba uhambo lubalulekile kwimisebenzi kunye noqoqosho lwelizwe lethu, kwaye urhulumente wethu kufuneka abeke phambili imigaqo-nkqubo yezohambo ukuqinisekisa ukuba ishishini liyaqhubeka nokukhula."
Ingxelo ngokuyinhloko ixhomekeke kwidatha evela kwi-Bureau of Labor Statistics yeSizwe iLongitudinal Surveys yoLutsha ngo-1979 kunye ne-1997 ukuhlola indlela yomsebenzi wabantu abo umsebenzi wabo wokuqala wawukushishino lokuhamba.
