Institutional Frameworks for Sustainable Human Resource Management in Events: A Kenyan Perspective

Abstract

Sustainable practices are increasingly indispensable to business success in both public and private sectors. By diversifying into the events sector, tourism destinations are able to attract investments from entrepreneurs. However, hardly and any information is documented on the sustainability of human resources for the event sector in the Kenyan context in line with existing legislation. This chapter seeks to create an insight into the nature of the event industry in Kenya and the institutional frameworks that govern the sector with special interest in human resource management.
