| Abstract: | The research studies the experiences of Polish migrant workers in the UK hospitality sector. It reports quantitative and qualitative empirical data on the migrantsÂ’ reasons for entering the hospitality workforce and their subsequent employment experiences. The findings reveal the main motive for entering employment in hospitality is for self development as migrants desire to use and learn foreign languages, gain work experience and receive other benefits that the sector provides. These self development opportunities are viewed as a means to improve career prospects in the UK or upon return to Poland. |
