Shortage of skilled workers

“Our product is definitely worth the price”

Cable car operators are struggling with the shortage of skilled workers and want more sustainability when it comes to energy. In any case, they are confidently facing up to a discussion about lift ticket prices. 

Winter is approaching and the ski companies are eagerly awaiting the opening of the season. 52 ski areas, 467 cable cars and lifts, 2500 employees in winter and 4700 hectares of ski slopes - these are the bare figures for the cable car industry in Salzburg. The plan is to start around the last weekend in November. Then the snow cannons will be running again, blowing six million cubic meters of water onto the slopes as artificial snow.
