Deputy Premier John Barilaro and Minister for Regional Youth Bronnie Taylor this week attended the Avorama avocado packing facility at Stuarts Point on the mid north coast to announce the Government’s new Regional Gap Year campaign. The program offers young people the opportunity to acquire new skills and a chance to earn extra money.
Mr Barilaro said regional agriculture, hospitality and tourism sectors continued to face significant worker shortages, so the campaign and website would be a first port of call, encouraging young people to take a gap year break in regional NSW and helping them to find work and plan ahead for a safe, fun and rewarding experience.
“It’s great to see so many people holidaying in regional NSW and enjoying country hospitality but it’s also clear that there aren’t enough staff to fill tourism and hospitality positions,” Mr Barilaro said.
“We want to remind young people that a Regional NSW Gap Year is a chance for career development and adventure, and with thousands of jobs, there’s something for everyone, from fruit picking in Armidale, to pulling a beer in Ballina, to taking tours in Tamworth.”
