Depending on 40 semi-structured interviews, the research shows the precarious work life of tour drivers and their relations with tourists and diverse workers

Özet

Yönetimci bakış, turizm sektöründe çalışmayı insan kaynakları yönetim pratikleri altında ağırlama alt sektörlerinde incelemektedir. Taşıma alt sektöründe çalışma ihmal edilen bir alandır. Ayrıca, genellikle birçok araştırma, turizmde çalışmayı turist-çalışan etkileşimi kapsamında ele almakta ve çalışanın diğer çalışanlarla olan ilişkilerini ihmal etmektedir. Bu araştırma, turizm sektöründe çalışan tur şoförlerinin çalışma pratiklerini ele almıştır. 40 yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeye dayanan araştırma tur şoförlerinin eğreti çalışma yaşamlarını ve onların turistler ve çeşitli çalışanlarla olan ilişkilerini göstermiştir
