Staffing challenges Savannah hotels face every day

Savannah hotels deal with high turnover, last-minute call-offs, and the ongoing cost of recruiting and training replacement staff. The result: managers covering shifts instead of managing their property.

TUMI Hospitality addresses these problems directly:

  • Reliable coverage when staff call off unexpectedly at your property
  • Eliminate the time and ongoing cost of in-house hotel recruiting
  • Consistent quality without managing HR, benefits, or payroll admin
  • Scale staffing up or down based on your occupancy and seasonal needs
  • Free up managers from covering shifts so they can focus on the property

Rigorous screening and training

Every candidate goes through a multi-stage screening process and completes a week-long training period at your specific property before working independently.

Yes. Every TUMI employee is classified as a W-2 worker, not a 1099 contractor or temporary worker. This means they receive full benefits including health insurance, dental insurance, and life insurance. This structure helps attract candidates looking for stable, long-term work, which translates to lower turnover at your property.

Some hotels operate under management companies that require approval before bringing in a third-party staffing partner. TUMI has established relationships with major hotel management companies and can work directly with the appropriate decision-makers if needed. We can help you navigate this process and provide proposals to Vice Presidents of Operations at the management company level.

A few things stand out. TUMI staffs hotels exclusively, which means every process and every hire is built around the specific demands of hotel operations. Area managers visit client properties every week, not monthly or quarterly. All employees are W-2 workers with full benefits, which leads to stronger retention. TUMI has maintained client relationships spanning 10 to 20 years, which reflects what consistent service over time looks like.
