ʻO nā hana ʻoihana huakaʻi e alakaʻi i ka uku kiʻekiʻe a me kahi paʻa mau no ka kūleʻa kālā, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka uku ma ka hana ʻana a me ka mālama olakino, e like me ka US Travel Association's Made in America: Travel's Contribution to Workforce Development.

Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo US Travel i ke aʻo ʻana e pili ana i ke kua o ka 36th makahiki National Travel and Tourism Week. ʻO ka hōʻike -ʻo ka lua o ka US Travel's "Made in America" e hōʻike ana i ke koʻikoʻi o ka huakaʻi no ka hoʻokele waiwai o US-ʻike i nā hanaʻoihana huakaʻi e hāʻawi i ke ala i ka pōmaikaʻi no nā miliona oʻAmelika.

Ma waena o nā ʻike kiʻekiʻe:

• ʻO ka huakaʻi ka ʻoihana helu 1 no nā hana mua. Ma kahi kokoke i ʻehā o 10 mau limahana i hoʻomaka i ka huakaʻi a me ka mākaʻikaʻi. Eia kekahi, he mau hana mua maikaʻi lākou e hāʻawi i nā limahana limahana, hilinaʻi a me ka ʻike e pono ai i nā ʻoihana kūleʻa i kahi ākea o nā hana.

• ʻO ka poʻe i hoʻomaka i kā lākou ʻoihana ma ka huakaʻi ua hele a loaʻa ka uku awelika kiʻekiʻe o $82,400 i ka manawa o 50 mau makahiki-ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe ma mua o ka poʻe i hoʻomaka i ka hana hana, mālama olakino a me nā ʻoihana ʻē aʻe.

• Ma kahi kokoke i ka hapakolu o nā ʻAmelika (31%) e komo hou ana i ka poʻe hana e hana pēlā ma o ka hana ma ka ʻoihana huakaʻi-hoʻohālikelike ʻia me 12% wale nō i ka hana ʻana a me 8% i ka mālama olakino. Loaʻa i nā hana huakaʻi ka maʻalahi, ka loaʻa, ka ʻokoʻa a me ka nānā ʻana i nā mākau hana e hoʻomaka i kahi ʻoihana maikaʻi.

Aia pū ka hōʻike i nā haʻawina hihia o nā poʻe i ʻimi i nā ʻoihana ma ka ʻoihana huakaʻi a hoʻokō i kā lākou moemoeā ʻAmelika ma muli o ka hopena.

"E like me nā poʻe ʻAmelika, ʻo kaʻu hana mua ma ka ʻoihana huakaʻi-ma ke ʻano he kiaʻi ola ma kahi wai hōkele-a hāʻawi iaʻu i ke kumu o nā mākau a me nā manawa kūpono e alakaʻi ai i kahi ʻoihana lōʻihi a maikaʻi," wahi a ka Pelekikena a me Luna Nui o US Travel Association Roger ʻO Dow. “Maikaʻi ʻia nā hana ʻoihana huakaʻi i nā poʻe ʻAmelika āpau, a hāʻawi i kahi ala i kahi ola paʻa a me ke ola. ʻO ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo ka huakaʻi ke ala i ka moeʻuhane ʻAmelika.

ʻO kekahi o nā mea nui i lawe ʻia mai ka hōʻike:

• Hāʻawi nā hana ʻoihana huakaʻi i ka maʻalahi no ka ʻimi ʻana i ke kula kiʻekiʻe a me ke aʻo ʻana. ʻO ka 6.1 miliona ʻAmelika e hana ana i ka hapa manawa i ka wā e ʻimi nei i ka hoʻonaʻauao kiʻekiʻe ma 2018, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka hapalua i hana i nā ʻoihana pili i ka huakaʻi. Ma kahi kokoke i hoʻokahi o ʻelima (18%) mau limahana huakaʻi hele i ke kula i kēia manawa, ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka 8% o nā limahana e hele ana i ke kula ma nā ʻāpana ʻē aʻe o ka ʻoihana.

• He ʻokoʻa ka ʻoihana huakaʻi a hiki ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā ʻoihana ʻē aʻe. Ma kahi kokoke i ka hapalua (46%) o nā limahana huakaʻi hele i ke kula kiʻekiʻe a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi, ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me 30% o nā limahana o ke koena o ka ʻoihana. Loaʻa i ka huakaʻi ka hapa nui o nā Hispanics, ʻAmelika ʻAmelika a me nā kānaka lehulehu ma mua o ke koena o ka hoʻokele waiwai.

• Ka ʻike ma ka huakaʻi hānai i nā ʻoihana. He ʻumikūmāhiku pakeneka o nā ʻAmelika nona ka hana mua ma ka huakaʻi i kēia manawa i kā lākou ʻoihana ponoʻī, a ʻo 19% ka manaʻo iā lākou iho he poʻe ʻoihana-hou, ʻoi aku ka kiʻekiʻe ma mua o ka hana ʻana a me ka mālama olakino. ʻO nā wahine i hoʻomaka i kā lākou ʻoihana ma ka ʻoihana huakaʻi, ua manaʻo ʻo 14% iā lākou iho he poʻe ʻoihana, hoʻohālikelike ʻia me 10% wale nō o ka poʻe i hoʻomaka i ka mālama olakino.

• Hoʻopiha ka ʻoihana huakaʻi i nā mākau. Ma o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana, ka hoʻonaʻauao, nā papahana hōʻoia a me ka ʻike mua, ke hāʻawi nei ka ʻoihana i nā kumuwaiwai a me nā manawa kūpono no nā haumāna kula kiʻekiʻe a me ke kulanui, nā mea liʻiliʻi, nā wahine a me nā poʻe me nā mea pale i ka hana e like me ka nele o ka hoʻonaʻauao kūlana.

"Maikaʻi nā helu helu, akā i ka wā e heluhelu ai ʻoe i nā profiles e maopopo ai ka hopena maoli o ka ʻoihana huakaʻi i nā hana," wahi a Dow. "Ke hāʻawi nei kēlā me kēia o nā moʻolelo i kahi kiʻi o ka hiki ke paʻa i ka ʻoihana huakaʻi no ka mea makemake e ʻimi i kahi ola ikaika.

"Ke hoʻoikaika hou nei kēia hōʻike i ka mea pili i ka huakaʻi i nā hana a me ka hoʻokele waiwai ma ko mākou ʻāina, a pono kā mākou aupuni e hoʻokumu i nā kulekele pro-travel e hōʻoia i ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻoihana."

Ke hilinaʻi nui nei ka hōʻike i ka ʻikepili mai ka Bureau of Labor Statistics National Longitudinal Surveys of Youth 1979 a me 1997 e ʻimi i ke ala ʻoihana o nā poʻe nona ka hana mua ma ka ʻoihana huakaʻi.

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:

“Like many Americans, my first job was in the travel industry—as a lifeguard at a hotel pool—and it gave me the foundation of skills and opportunities that led to a long and rewarding career,”.
• Nearly a third of Americans (31%) re-entering the workforce do so through a job in the travel industry—compared to just 12% in manufacturing and 8% in health care.
Ke hilinaʻi nui nei ka hōʻike i ka ʻikepili mai ka Bureau of Labor Statistics National Longitudinal Surveys of Youth 1979 a me 1997 e ʻimi i ke ala ʻoihana o nā poʻe nona ka hana mua ma ka ʻoihana huakaʻi.
