CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is an important and integral principle of our Company’s operating philosophy, engaging
in initiatives such as environmental management, employee engagement, health and safety as well as community interactions
and support.
Our Company values its employees by providing a safe working environment. We encourage our employees to pursue personal
and professional development by organizing a wide range of training programs under the banner of our hotels, to develop
and improve the management and leadership skills, supporting internal promotions of our employees. Social events such as
team building are also organized to promote greater teamwork as well as encourage interactions and communications amongst
employees.
Our Company also places importance on charity where we contribute to the local communities through donations to charities
such as orphanage homes. Our Company also places emphasis on health and safety issues of its employees, customers and
general public.
As a good corporate citizen, we are very conscious of our responsibilities and often we engage local communities in the areas
of our business operations. Through our active and sustainable environmental management policy, we strive to leave a small
environmental footprint with the most minimal impact in our business operations. We encourage our employees as well as
customers and hotel guests to share the same environmental vision of sustainability and protection.
GPB is committed to our corporate social responsibility as we identify CSR as a key component to the success of our business.
We seek to make continual improvements in our business policies to sustain the development and implementation of our CSR
programs.
