INTRODUCTION
British Hospitality Association (BHA) is an non profit organization who represent the
interest of the hospitality industry and its bodies who are some or other way contribute in this
sector. Hotels, restaurants, clubs, pubs and rest houses fall in the category of this, we could say
that it is basically a service industry which include accommodation, event planning,
transportation and etc. BHA has approx. 40000 members and came in existence in 1907. The
work of the British Hospitality Association is to represent these all bodies in front of the
government or parliament (Brotherton, 2012). Whatever problem this industry is facing is
addressed by this association and they take certain preventive measures to solve that issue. BHA
is a London based organisation and operates its operations all over UK. United Kingdom which
is one of the world's most favourite tourism destination and is the main source of the economy of
the country. It is the fourth largest industry which representing 10 percent of the GDP. The
decision to leave the European Union will definitely hit this industry in various areas like
workforce supply, skills and taxation. British Hospitality Association has developed or came out
with a report which included the issues which will effect this sector.
TASK
British hospitality industry over the years has seen a big growth and continues to grow. It
has created lots of the opportunities and careers for the people and organizations who are in this
business of the tourism and hospitality. This industry serves traveller a unique experience during
their stay in United Kingdom. This type of industry needs a big support from the government
because they are the people or body who makes laws and policies (Medlik, 2012). Whenever a
tourist comes to any country and whatever he sees there makes his mindset about that country.
So this industry is the image making sector about any nation. A referendum was passed in June,
2016 where people of UK has decided to leave the EU with 17,410,742 or almost 52 percent
voted in the favour of this decision. England and Wales votes helped them to win this support
whereas the Scotland and Ireland was against this which could have been through voting.
Britain's exit from the EU might have a positive impact on other industries but this will sector
will have negative impacts more than the positive (Boella and Goss-Turner, 2013). It is
predicated that around 700,000 of the 4.5 million people that make up the industry are labours or
workers from the European Union, 63 percent of the inbound holidaymakers to the Britain are
from countries of the EU and many of the rural and coastal assets of the country depends on EU
