A high level and intensity of competition among hotel workers seeking higher job positions, emotional labor, and the need for new knowledge and skills are some of the job stressors that directly and intensively impact employees’ occupational wellbeing. The Human Resources sector is widely recognized as one of the foremost assets within tourism and hospitality organizations, extensively examined by numerous scholars. However, the impact of organizational training on employees' organizational wellbeing has been relatively understudied. The purpose of this study is to expand studies in the field of hospitality in Finland and contribute to understanding the training methods used in chain hotels in Helsinki and the relationship between job training and employees’ occupational wellbeing. The results of the current thesis indicate a positive but statistically insignificant association between job training satisfaction and wellbeing in the workplace. Components such as gender, age, years of working, and occupational status including department, were determined statistically insignificant in their relationship between job training and wellbeing in the workplace. The study also found that managers in this industry have received more training than subordinates. Additionally, one-on-one training and self-study, including video-based training, were provided more frequently than other training methods to trainees. Analyses of the findings led to conclusions and suggestions for researchers and professionals in the field of Human Resource Development. These suggestions included providing more training that is focused on employees' wellbeing, and conducting qualitative research to examine the effectiveness of current training methods.
