WOMEN DOMINATE THE RESTAURANT WORKFORCE, EXCEPT AT THE TOP

By Jonathan Maze on Aug. 03, 2022

“Restaurants apparently do a poor job of counting their women—and how much they promote them.

A wide-ranging new survey released on Wednesday by the National Restaurant Association found that far more restaurant workers identify as women than companies say they do. The survey also provides more evidence that the industry has a far greater percentage of female entry-level workers than it has female executives.

It’s one of several conclusions from the study from the association, the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation (NRAEF), the Multicultural Foodservice and Hospitality Alliance (MFHA) and the Cornell University Nolan School of Hospitality Administration.”
