When you are managing maintenance of retail or hospitality locations you will know keeping tabs on all the public holidays in each country around Europe can be a tricky task. There’s always one which manages to stay out of sight and then catch you out. Having this information to hand can be surprisingly useful, especially when you have an urgent maintenance issue to resolve.
These issues have a habit of cropping up unexpectedly—and summer often provides the perfect conditions for them to arise.. For example, with the warm weather your locations need to be a comfortable place for customers and staff. Your stock, food or ingredients might also depend on a temperature-controlled environment. And if your HVAC systems fail around a public holiday, getting the help you need to resolve the problem can suddenly become very tough indeed.
Just getting through to someone to get the ball rolling can feel impossible. Not all helpdesks are continuously staffed. So you can’t even speak to someone to begin to put the problem right. When this happens it’s useful to know if this is due to the people in that country taking some time off.
