Over the years, many industrialists, having seen the advantages of keeping the workforce on-site during meal breaks, have adopted the same attitude. Most of them accept that catering is a skilled profession and that, the scope of their own management is unlikely to stretch to the provision of food for t􀀒e workforce. Some may think that a part-time cook and helpers, under the guidance of a personnel director, can cope with the task.
