The demand for cooks and chefs in Queensland is increasing and shows no signs of slowing down. This scoping document has been developed to identify the challenges associated with attraction, recruitment, and retention and training quality of the workforce.
The Queensland Tourism Industry Council (QTIC) consulted with more than 60 professional chefs and human resource managers from the Gold Coast and Cairns regions through forums to identify current challenges and develop strategies to alleviate the skill shortage and pressure on industry.
View QTIC's report prepared for the Department of Education and Training in consultation with industry on Queensland's Chef Shortage.
