| Abstract: | Food service is a core component of many tourism destinations and attractions. Yet, the food service labour market is historically volatile. This article reports on the findings of a job satisfaction survey of chefs working in Australia's tourism and hospitality industry. It is aimed at empirically determining whether there is a positive relationship btw. creativity and job and occupational satisfaction. It is herein focused on identifying a set of job satisfaction dimensions and occupational attributes linked to creativity and its associated dimensions. It is found that the sample ranks creativity more highly than working conditions. There appears to be a clear relationship btw. creativity and both organizational and occupational satisfaction. Results vary by gender. |
