Abstract:Using the task pool model and data from 15 establishments in the Dutch hospitality industry, this study shows how and why applying handhelds affects the division of labour. These devices allow to split the waiters' jobs into separate tasks which tend to be combined into two separate "s ub jobs": the "palmtopper" and the "runner". Whereas handhelds are not necessary for creating separate waiting jobs, the technology enables to create conditions under which it becomes attractive for management to opt for an increased division of labour. We show the contingent conditions and underlying mechanisms which explain why certain choices prevail.Keywords: case study; division of labour; electronic ordering systems; e-fi nance; handhelds; hospitality industry; mobile payment systems; the Netherlands; social voluntarism; technological determinism.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Benders, J., Schouteten, R. and de Ruijsscher, C.

“…One of the evident technological innovations includes mobile devices' emergence in booking a flight [32]. Mobile technology in the aviation industry for reserving a flight has progressed significantly and was found to enhance productivity and airline service qualities and cut operation expenses [33]. In relation to environmental sustainability, innovative attempts in the political aspects of tourism may include implicating taxes for air transportation based on its travel length and gas emissions [7].…”

While the cabin waste of an aircraft has been recognized and criticized, there is not enough research that explores its gravity in airlines and ways to reduce its total amount. This research aimed to highlight the importance of promoting online meal reservations for airline passengers as a way to minimize food waste and for airlines to offset the cost of tailoring inflight food options by revealing the inflight meal types and subcategories for which passengers are willing to pay an upgrade fee to support environmental and economic sustainability. A sample of 192 students from higher education in the U.S. completed an online questionnaire survey. Two groups with distinctive preferences for inflight meal upgrades were identified using exploratory factor analysis and cluster analysis. Participants were more likely to reserve inflight meals online when various inflight meal options were provided. They presented a higher willingness to pay more when a variety of foods was provided, with a lower willingness for healthy or religious foods. The highly educated participants in a younger age group and Asian/Pacific Islanders presented a significantly higher willingness to reserve meals online than the rest. The study results highlight the potential benefits of offering an online reservation option for inflight meals to reduce cabin waste and ensure passenger satisfaction.

“…J. et al in (2009) [3], Olaniyi, et al in (2010) [4], Pranjali kharwade et al in (2014) [6]presented a mobile application for airline reservation system with some differences in design methodology. Oyelade proposed system was produced utilizing the Wireless Markup Language (WML) as frontend, MySQL 4.0 database administration framework as back-end and PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) as the server-side scripting language, while Olaniyi depended on .NET framework and MY SQL 2005 database management system for the back-end.…”
