Description This paper looks at the employment situation ofPortuguese tourism graduates, particularly to the differencesbetween the work situation of those employed in the tourismsector and those who are working outside this sector. Data wascollected through an online questionnaire applied to thePortuguese tourism graduates in Portugal, comparing theirsalaries, working hours and schedules, contractual situation,hierarchical position and job satisfaction. Results evidenced thatthe tourism sector is not taking advantage of the availablequalified human resources. Moreover, data suggests that tourismgraduates employed outside the tourism sector are facing poorerworking situations than those graduates employed within thisindustry.
