The restaurant will need a reliable manager with at least three years of experience, whose salary can range between $30,000 to $35,000 per year. An executive chef that will develop new menus will earn between $35,000 to $45,000. To establish an effective environment, the chef will be encouraged to hire cooks that will fit his or her requirements and contribute to the effective operation of Dough Pizza. An estimated pay for cooks (5-6 workers) is between $600 and $650 per week. Maintenance staff (7-9 workers) such as dishwashers, cleaners, and other personnel will be hired with the help of cooks, the chef, and the manager based on their previous experience working with such personnel; the expected pay for maintenance staff will be $10 an hour. Lastly, the serving staff will be hired through a series of interviews, test runs, and training to ensure that they provide top-quality services to customers. It is expected to pay them around $13 per hour due to their earning tips additionally. The initial hiring of the restaurant manager and the chef will be conducted by the restaurant’s owner while the subsequent hiring processes will be assigned as the responsibilities of the hired professionals. Any additional training, including management, cooking, and language courses will be given to all workers regardless of their levels of experience. For the manager and the chef, festivals and symposiums represent great opportunities to meet professionals and establish potential business connections. Apart from the annual or hourly compensations, employees will also be given health benefits, bonuses, and incentives, as well as retirement savings plans.
