As many as 2,000 jobs in the city remain unfilled, according to estimates by the Pacific Rim Institute of Tourism Michael Lambert, general manager of the Hotel Vancouver, has two supervisory jobs vacant. He doesn’t expect to see them filled in the near future. There are 15 job vacancies at the posh Pan Pacific Hotel, said general manager John Williams “We are not advertising. It’s a futile exercise,” said Williams. NOT ENOUGH Roslyn Kunin, regional economist for the federal Department of Em- ployment and Immigration, said the problem is two-fold: there aren't enough people, and there aren't enough people willing to work Both workers and employers have traditionally shown little foresight when it comes to hospitality industry jobs, said Kunin. Workers have not viewed them as careers and employers have seen no need to encourage workers by offering higher salaries. out our century.
