hospitality
The leisure,
sport and tourism industries offer a very wide range
of jobs. People have more leisure time, greater disposable
income and longer life expectancy. While relatively
few people earn a living from playing sport, millions
of people enjoy participating in sport. Whether amateur
or professional, most participants need the help of
coaches and instructors, and make use of sports facilities
and leisure centres. Many people want to become fitter
and lead healthier lives, and there are government initiatives
trying to encourage people to take more exercise. There
are many opportunities within tourism, as increasing
numbers of people take holidays overseas or leisure
breaks within the UK. It includes work in transport
and travel services, and entertainment.
Most jobs in these sectors are concerned with helping
people to enjoy their leisure time. Some jobs involve
very active work and some are desk-bound. Work opportunities
exist throughout the UK, and there are jobs at all levels
- management, professional, skilled and semi-skilled.
