Understanding Seasonal Labor Costs
Seasonal labor is the lifeblood of a ski resort, but it's also the largest and most complex expense to manage. Costs go far beyond hourly wages, with employee housing often being a critical—and expensive—component needed to attract and retain talent in remote mountain towns.
