1 feb 2002 anni - Half of all jobs in tourism in Akaroa, $17.3 million direct spending

Descrizione:

Approximately 160 persons (Full Time Equivalent - FTE), on average over the year 2002, were employed directly in tourism in Akaroa. Significantly more people in Akaroa work in businesses which are primarily dependent on tourism, but some of the employment is part time, the industry is seasonal, and many businesses sell only part of their turnover to tourists.

Every job in Akaroa tourism leads, on average, to a further 0.15 jobs elsewhere in the Banks
Peninsula District economy, but probably only half of those are created in Akaroa. Hence total
tourism-dependent employment in Akaroa is around 172 FTEs. This total excludes any jobs in
social services (such as teaching) that might be lost if tourism (and hence employment) declined, and people emigrated from the District. Total employment in Akaroa as measured in the 2001 census was around 261 FTEs, and on average over 2002 it was probably closer to 300. Hence about half of all jobs in the Township depend either directly or indirectly on tourism.
