1TOURISM MANAGEMENTIntroductionSeasonality is identified as one of the prominent feature of the tourism sector,which was derived from the people movement of fluctuation in demand. The causes andimpact of this phenomenon on the specific destinations were well- researched in orderto identify seasonality as a problem in the specific industry. Not only does it affect thehuman resources practices in the hospitality industry but sometimes, taken responsiblefor the seasonal employment, unemployment and underemployment too (Backer andRitchie 2017). This specific feature is affecting the specific locations in order to face thedemand. DescriptionThe tourism sector is a major area, which poses potential benefits not only to thehost countries but also to the hometown of tourists. For instance, if an Australian touristpay visit to UK then the benefit will be faced by both UK and Australia. The developingcountries should take most of the economic benefits in developing their nation by takinghelp of tourism. Both positive and negative impacts are associated with the economicbenefits of tourism. There are underlying costs in tourism, which are overlooked by thehost countries and they fall prey to it (Tang, Weaver and Lawton 2017). The negative impact is mostly faced by the developing countries in comparisonto the developed countries. The developed and the richer countries are able to gainmore profits from the tourism business than the poor countries. On the other hand, thepoor countries need to take most of the advantage from tourism but they are the mostaffected. One of the major reasons for this disparity is related to a huge transfer oftourism revenues from the host nation and avoiding the domestic business andproducts. The seasonal character of tourism leads to insecurity in job and it isassociated with inefficiency in training of the workforce. Sometimes, the local individualswho look for part time jobs during the tourism season might end up in beingunemployed in the next season (Ernawati, Dowling and Sanders 2015).
