The best of your letters, comments and social media this week Poor pay: The ‘benefit’ of travel is no compensation
Story: Sell travel as ‘sexy’ career option, says Hays Travel owner Travel is a brilliant industry to work in, but the unsaid truth is that to enjoy the opportunities that it presents to travel and experience the world, staff have to be paid enough to exercise that opportunity as well as maintain their home and family on a monthly basis. The industry has always implied these ‘benefits’ compensate for the poor pay in the industry – but they don’t and never have, and times like this prove it. The fact that some people in work also have to claim benefits to sustain a minimum standard of living simply shows that the state is having to top up bad remuneration by employers. So the state is basically compensating poor remuneration, and thereby enabling higher-than-deserved profits. Robin H
