The post-pandemic staff issue
Since the wheels started turning again after the pandemic things have been tough at golf courses around Australia. On the one hand, clubs are experiencing a welcomed increase in player rounds and a rise in club membership numbers, on the other, they are facing a concurrent employment crisis that is rife around the country.
The resurgence is putting an even bigger onus on service and playability, but sadly golf’s staffing problem has now become widespread that clubs are unable to get enough personnel to keep their clubhouses open for the entire day. The industry’s issue with wages, pressures of the job, and long-time employees’ re-evaluation of goals following the Covid pandemic are driving people into other careers.
Ma
ny clubs are fighting to attract the same staff, but committees are unwilling to devote more of the club’s funding to the same level of staff they always used to have before. A common response to the growing problem has been to fast-track the recruitment process and forego previous checks and requirements to fulfill certain positions.
Regrettably, these new practices are leaving some golf facilities with unqualified or lack of experienced facility staff which is causing a decline in the quality of their product and services.
So, there must be a better more affordable option for clubs to get on with business.
One thing we all learned from Covid lockdowns is that work can be done remotely and with more affordability.
