  This critical review examines the role of advanced technologies in reshaping slavery-like working conditions in the hospitality industry. While automation and intelligent systems can improve efficiency and ease workloads, they also raise concerns about worker displacement, wage disparities, and job insecurity. The discussion revolves around whether technological advancements can improve working conditions or deepen existing inequalities by favouring highly skilled workers while marginalising others. The existing literature does not provide a unified framework that guarantees ethical employment practices by combining technology with labour force policies. The study introduces the Tech-Driven Fair and Decent Work Agenda (TDFDWA) as an approach towards implementing the Fair and Decent Work Agenda (FDWA), sustainable development goals (SDG 8) and International Labour Organization (ILO), aiming to integrate advanced technologies in implementing ethical labour governance. This agenda harnesses advanced technologies for promoting economic growth and ethical employment to ensure labour force stability in the age of the digitalised hospitality industry.

  The rapid growth of tourism in Hungary and the labour migration to abroad resulted in a serious labour shortage in the industry. One of the sources of skilled and motivated workforce is the system of tourism vocational education and training, which can just slowly react to market changes due to its inertness. In addition, the highly centralized system provides low-level of freedom to respond to regional differences, as the National Core Curriculum and its related regulatory documents are compulsory for the institutions and maintainers implementing them.

  This paper seeks for possible solutions to the prevailing challenges by a comparative examination of the tourism VET system in Finland and Hungary. As a result the author propounds possible alternatives to develop secondary tourism education.

  A financially conscious population promotes a country's competitiveness and makes its economic stability more secure. There is a need to promote financial awareness and education among secondary school students, young adults and older age groups. Our synthesis research is based on secondary data collection. This article describes the importance of financial awareness and the domestic initiatives and challenges to improve it, with a particular focus on human resource factors. It can be concluded that there are a number of initiatives in Hungary aimed at providing students with the financial and economic basics they will need in the future, starting from school. Some training is available for teachers involved in education, but there can be a serious problem with the low number of teachers.
