Accommodation provided by the Big Sky Resort to its workforce represents a significant operational element. This housing initiative addresses the logistical challenges inherent in staffing a remote, seasonal resort. Examples include dormitory-style residences, apartments, and shared houses located either on the resort property or in nearby communities.
The provision of such accommodation is crucial for attracting and retaining employees, particularly given the limited availability and often high cost of housing in the Big Sky area. Historically, resorts have utilized employee accommodation as a means to ensure adequate staffing levels and maintain operational efficiency. Benefits extend to both employees, who gain access to affordable living options, and the resort, which ensures a stable and readily available workforce.
