  • The Status of Women in the Uk Travel & Tourism Industry
    THE STATUS OF WOMEN IN THE UK TRAVEL & TOURISM INDUSTRY: An evaluation of the cruise and tour operator sectors In collaboration with AWTE Prepared by Dr Petra Glover and Angela O’Reilly based on dissertations by Heather Bratton and Angelina Periskic UNIVERSITY OF EAST LONDON SCHOOL OF BUSINESS & LAW DELIVERED MARCH 2016 THE STATUS OF WOMEN IN THE UK TRAVEL & TOURISM INDUSTRY: AN EVALUATION OF THE CRUISE AND TOUR OPERATOR SECTORS Allow us to proudly introduce the AWTE Women In Travel Empowerment Index. With this inaugural survey, AWTE has created a vehicle that will, on an annual basis, provide the definitive guide to the status of women within the UK travel and hospitality industries. This will enable us to monitor and advise on the empowerment of women within this sector of the economy. We, in conjunction with the University of East London intend to supply benchmarking data that, over time, can show the progress (or otherwise) of women in the sector – both in current leadership roles and influence, and in predicting future trends in female leadership of the travel and hospitality industries. The word empowerment is positive. The report will celebrate how well women are doing within the industry as well as illustrate the potential they have and can bring to the industry in addition to highlighting areas of the sector that could do better. The role of women and their success in the UK travel and hospitality sector has until now largely been based on anecdotal evidence. With this empirical evidence we can now have a meaningful debate and help devise a clear strategy.

  • GCSE Leisure and Tourism 2009 Unit1.Pdf
    GCSE Leisure & Tourism – Investigating Leisure & Tourism in a chosen area 2.1.2 A Introduction to Leisure and Tourism Leisure Every person has things that they have to do. Many adults have to go to work; someone has to do the shopping, prepare meals, and clean the house and so on. Students and children have to go to school or college and may have homework projects to do after school has finished. Also, every person has to sleep, wash and shower usually for somewhere between 6 to 8 hours each night. When all these things have been completed there is time left over, and this time is a person’s leisure time. During this time, people choose to do what they enjoy doing rather than what they have to do. Put another way: Leisure time is the opportunity available to a person after completing the immediate necessities of life. During this time the person has the freedom to choose what activities to take part in. Another term used is a person’s free time. Some people choose to do very little in their leisure time and may watch television, listen to music or read a newspaper. All of these are very popular leisure activities. They are all things which many people choose to do because they can be done at home and cost very little money. Also, they are activities which people can enjoy on their own. Each person can decide what to do in their leisure time and there are many factors which influence this choice, including the age of the person, their family and friends, their religion and culture, the money they have to spend on leisure and where they live.
