Hospitality
Behind Every Great Guest Experience is a Great Team
Hospitality teams work tirelessly to deliver great guest experiences, yet high turnover, burnout, and limited support threaten their success. Rewardian helps hotels, restaurants, and resorts recognize and reward employees, boosting morale, retention, and team culture. Celebrating achievements and offering meaningful incentives empowers staff to provide exceptional service while keeping both employees and guests happy.
3 Major Problems in Hospitality
Turnover TroublesThe hospitality sector experiences notably high employee turnover, with rates nearly double those of other industries. A Cornell study found that losing an employee costs a business approximately $5,864, including expenses related to recruitment, onboarding, training, and workflow disruptions. |

The Burnout CrisisEmployee burnout is a major issue in hospitality due to long hours, high demands, and constant stress. Staff shortages force employees to take on extra responsibilities, adding to an already exhausting workload. The pressure to be “on” every day takes a serious toll on both mental and physical health. In fact, 69% of shift workers report that their schedules leave them overly exhausted and burned out. This challenge not only harms employee well-being but also reduces efficiency and drives turnover. |
Support DeficitInadequate training and support drive high stress among hospitality workers. A survey of 500 U.S. hospitality managers found 54% felt their companies lacked up-to-date training for employee engagement and well-being. This leaves staff unprepared, increasing stress and burnout. Limited resources for managing customer interactions add to frustration and dissatisfaction. Without proper training and support, turnover stays high, straining an already burdened workforce. |

The Reality of Burnout in Manufacturing
Hard work drives this industry: long shifts, quick problem-solving, and relentless follow-through. But there is a fine line between dedication and burnout. When once-reliable employees disengage, call out more often, or quietly job hunt, it takes a toll on productivity, retention, and morale. Addressing burnout isn’t just good for employees—it is essential for long-term success.

Balancing Expansion and Retention: The Future of Hiring in ManufacturingTurnover and retirement rates have been steadily increasing, with 66% of manufacturers reporting that filling open positions now takes longer. The challenge of recruiting skilled workers has put additional pressure on companies, forcing them to refine hiring strategies and invest in employee retention efforts. |
Consequences of a poor manufacturing work cultureA lack of creativity and innovation leaves employees disengaged, hindering both personal growth and company progress. In manufacturing, poor culture often drives workers to seek more fulfilling roles elsewhere. This revolving door effect reduces productivity and increases training costs. While there’s momentum to improve culture, real change requires a fundamental shift in mindset—one that takes time, commitment, and a break from outdated norms. |
