2019 SEASONAL STAFFING SURVEY During the period of Sept 23 – Oct 25, 2019, Kootenay Rockies Tourism and go2HR conducted a Seasonal Staffing Survey for the region. The goal of this survey was to gain insights into the labour market needs and composition of the tourism and hospitality workforce during the peak of the 2019 summer season and establish comparison with the 2017 summer season which was when the first seasonal staffing survey took place. This important information will help us identify trends, challenges and opportunities to better provide HR-related support for employers within the region.
