EFFAT is signatory to the Pact for Skills for Tourism (PfST) and has informed its member organisations about the setting up of national or regional skills partnerships.

EFFAT reminded the PfST support structures that given the fact that in most EU Member States the social partners, i.e. employers and trade unions, are involved in vocational education and training, any new structures created under the PfST need to build on or at least involve the ongoing VET work and its actors.

EFFAT regularly attends the PfST Coordination Group meetings, and, together with HOTREC, is member of the PfST Management Committee in the category of social partners.

In November 2023, EFFAT, in cooperation with its social partner HOTREC, is planning an event in the context of the European Year of Skills, to present joint recommendations on vocational education and training and skills in the hospitality sector, inviting DG EMPL and DG GROW and a wide range of hospitality-tourism stakeholders.
During 2024-2025, these recommendations will be followed up by monitoring and regular reporting of their implementation in the context of the Sectoral Social Dialogue Committee Horeca.
