Chef noted that till the onset of the pandemic, the corporate rules and benefits were never applied to this industry and the jobs were thankless to a great extent. But, since the reopening of these businesses after the pandemic protocols were lifted, issues such as mental health, flexibility, well being and so on caught the attention of both employers and employees. 

He added, “People in our industry were earlier only skilled, but now they're skilled and also educated.”
