  • Food waste in Slovenia and how the hospitality industry perceives it
    Vulić, Gordana
    The article discusses food waste in Slovenia, its reasons, and the attitude of hospitality workers towards food waste. A survey was conducted among hospitality workers, showing that the amount of ... food waste varies. With 65 percent of respondents, the daily amount of food thrown away is up to five kilograms, a good quarter throws away between five and ten kilograms a day, and ten percent discard more than ten kilograms of food per day. Most hospitality workers say they discard very little or no food themselves and that most of the discarded food comes from plates of guests who order too much food and are unable to eat it. The article further discusses the handling of food after the end of the day and which methods of reusing food are used. Most participants in the study are trying to reduce the amount of food waste and agree that it would be necessary to act on the amount of food that is discarded.
