Think people

Our focus is on generating shared value through job creation, people development, and rewarding opportunities for a global and diverse workforce. We support our team members and franchisees with on-the-job skills training and extensive development opportunities.

Youth unemployment is a real issue in many countries around the globe. We look in our communities to discover and develop talent, to generate interest of young people to join the world of hospitality. Radisson Hotel Group often work with schools and non-profit organizations to offer trainee positions and job experience opportunities for young people, including at-risk-youth and other vulnerable members of society. By giving career opportunities to vulnerable young people, the company gains new, youthful, and dynamic colleagues.

Through the Youth employment program of the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance we give disadvantaged young people the chance to learn a range of skills across a variety of departments. Success rates are impressive: 85% of the program’s graduates get a job at Radisson Hotel Group or another company or they go on to continue their education.

One of our core culture beliefs is that ‘we are many minds with one mindset’. This belief is based on our respect for individual differences, life experiences, and diverse world views.

By working together, Radisson Hotel Group is dedicated to building a global team of employees that reflect the communities where we work and live, and the diversity of the customers we serve.

Our guests and our talents deserve a safe environment where they are valued for who they are. As our workforce is driven by people from different backgrounds, personalities, and points of view, we strive to create places where everyone can express their authentic selves, seize opportunities, make decisions, and resolve conflicts.

Radisson Hotel Group endorses the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and follows them in our policies and procedures. We’ve committed to raise awareness of human rights risks, and address risks arising in the labor supply chain. Key human rights and employment principles are reflected in two policies, which complement our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and clarify the principles we live and work by in our hotels. 

These policies are: 

• Human rights policy statement covers our engagement on issues such as ethical business conduct, the protection of children’s rights, combating human trafficking, and protection of the rights of employees. 
• Employment Principles cover Radisson Hotel Group’s promises to our employees. These include non-discrimination, freedom of association, and the development of in-house talent.

Our aim is to combat and eliminate any form of modern slavery, and to operate hotels free of child exploitation and forced, bonded, or compulsory labor. We apply these principles to our operations and in our supply chain.

The power of travel is borderless, and unfortunately, so are global risks. Our core value is the safety and security of guests and employees. It is deeply rooted in our culture and the values that we emphasize in the operation of our hotels. We have a specific program for corporate and regional hotel safety and security. It is used by all our hotel brands to protect our guests, team members, properties, and reputation.

Our highest priority is the health, safety and security of our guests, team members and partners worldwide. COVID-19 has changed the way we live. In response to this, we have reviewed of our existing health and safety processes and developed a new Radisson Hotels Safety Protocol in partnership with SGS. Our enforced cleanliness and disinfection protocols ensure your safety and peace of mind from check-in to check-out.

All interactions within Radisson Hotel Group, with our team members, partners, stakeholders and local communities, are based on the highest principles of business ethics. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics governs how we do business. It enables us to take positions on key issues of business ethics with a single voice.
