Several people are employed almost all year round in tourism businesses throughout the country.

The provision of hospitality services includes a wide range of activities carried out by a variety of employees.

Nevertheless, the changing approach of the tourism product and the strong competition from neighbouring countries require the education and training of the human resources of the Greek tourism sector.
