Minister of Tourism Champions Better Labour Market Arrangements for Jamaica’s Tourism Workers

Following the annual strategic meeting with Inverotel, one of the largest Spanish hotel investment groups, Minister of Tourism, Hon Edmund Bartlett has negotiated better labour market arrangements for the backbone of Jamaica’s tourism sector - its dedicated workforce. The meeting included key representatives from Inverotel and senior tourism officials in the margins of FITUR, the leading tourism trade fair held in Spain. Established in 2007, the Inverotel Group currently has 18 members from various hotel chains, which together have around 100,000 rooms in the Americas and the Caribbean. The discussion, led by the Minister, focused on a comprehensive plan that will address three critical areas: housing accessibility, professional development through training, and retirement security. “Our tourism workers are the heart and soul of Jamaica’s hospitality sector,” said Minister Bartlett. “This initiative represents the commitment of our largest investors to our workers’ well-being and professional growth, ensuring a sustainable future for both our employees and the sector,” he added.
