“We are honoured to be recognised for Planet 21, our community and environmental programme. The full participation and support of our employees, partners and guests has taken Planet 21 to where it is today,” said Gaynor Reid, VP Communications & CSR AccorHotels Asia Pacific. “We remain committed to putting CSR initiatives at the very core of our business and to protecting the planet and its people.”
“We are proud to receive this recognition for Mature Workforce Practices as we believe that talent is ageless. We welcome mature workers to join the AccorHotels team by implementing initiatives to aid these workers in adapting to the work environment. With an ageing population across most countries in the region, Age-Friendly Programmes are even more critical today,” said Patrick Ollivier, Chief Talent & Culture Officer of AccorHotels Asia Pacific.
“More importantly, the integration and retention of our mature workforce has reinforced the essence of our values and helped create a nurturing work environment,” he added.
AccorHotels, between 2011 and 2015, raised awareness and participated in initiatives on local and global scales. For example, AccorHotels Asia Pacific hotels made significant progress in the areas of child protection, well-being in the workplace, biodiversity, water and energy consumption management and responsible food and beverage with almost all hotels banning endangered seafood products like shark’s fin. In five years, water consumption has been cut by over 9%, energy consumption by 5.4% and carbon emissions by 6.4%.
AccorHotels, with more than 20 years’ commitment to sustainability, is a leader in CSR in the tourism and hospitality sector. The group remains committed to continuing to improve its sustainability credentials, with bold new five-year targets set earlier this year.
