İSTANBUL’DAKİ KÜÇÜK VE ORTA ÖLÇEKLİ OTEL İŞLETMELERİNDE İŞGÖREN SEÇİMİ

Emek yoğun bir endüstri olan turizmde işgören seçimi, üzerinde durulması gereken önemli bir konu olarak dikkat çekmektedir. Sektörde görev niteliklerine uygun olmayan çok sayıda çalışanın istihdam ettirilmesi, KOBİ’lerin organizasyonel hedeflerini gerçekleştirmede başarısız olmalarına neden olabilmektedir. Turizm endüstrisi içinde sayıca üstün olan KOBİ’lerde istihdam edilen işgörenler müşteriler ile birebir etkileşime geçmektedir. Bu özelliğinden ötürü KOBİ’ler işgören seçiminde büyük işletmelere göre farklı bir yol izlemektedirler. Bu açıdan bakıldığında sayısı oldukça az olan işgören konusunda yanlış bir seçimin yapılması işletme açısından olumsuz sonuçları da beraberinde getirebilir. Bu çalışmada yukarıda ifade edilen hususlarla ilgili olarak İstanbul’da bulunan küçük ve orta ölçekli otel işletmelerinin yetkilileri ile birebir görüşülmek suretiyle işgören seçimi incelenmekte ve sonuçları içerik analizi yolu ile aktarılmaya çalışılmaktadır.
