Spanish Chefs Reveal Harsh Realities of Industry Salaries and Hours
A recent video by chef elmonochef has shed light on the often-grueling realities of working in the Spanish culinary sector, detailing the salary structures and extensive working hours faced by kitchen staff. The video outlines a career path beginning with unpaid internships, where individuals may work 10-12 hours daily without compensation. Following this, a kitchen assistant can expect to earn between 600 and 1000 euros monthly for similar long hours. As chefs progress to a chef de partie role, responsible for an entire section, salaries can reach approximately 1700 euros, though daily shifts remain around 11-12 hours. The highest positions, such as second chef or head chef, command salaries ranging from 2000 to 3000 euros per month, but come with "brutal" responsibility and shifts often exceeding 12 hours. The chef raises a critical question, asking viewers if these wages adequately compensate for the personal sacrifices of time, health, and life. This discussion highlights a significant concern within the hospitality industry regarding labor conditions and fair compensation.
