Another significant support for tourism

Based on the proposal of the Hungarian Tourism Agency, the government decided to extend the manufacturing program to the tourism sector. About 16,000 catering units and 4,500 accommodations can therefore apply for the support program. The repeated package of measures affecting the sector contributes significantly to the preservation of the stability of tourism micro, small and medium enterprises, as well as to the retention of the workforce. The enterprises operating the affected catering units and accommodation employ 70-80% of the employees of the two sectors, around 80-100 thousand people. Keeping them on track is in the fundamental interest of the sector, as well-educated, highly experienced employees are essential for the development of tourism, which is the driving force of the economy, as well as for long-term stability.
