Assessment 2 Assessment method:Industry sector report Weighting: 40% Word count or equivalent: 1600 words Due week:23.59 pm on the Sunday of week 10 Topic Judge the implementation and levels of adoption of sustainable practices by a tourism and hospitality organisation. To do this review a sustainability report produced by an organisation of your choice. Your review needs to cover the following criteria: · What social and environmental sustainability practices were implemented at the tourism or hospitality enterprise? · Which areas of sustainability were not implemented? Why? · Generally what impacts (positive and negative) were created by the organization for all of the stakeholders involved? · What sustainable frameworks or reporting practices were used to compile the report? How did these frameworks contribute to the organisation, transparency and rigour of the report? Prior to writing your report you need to create a table, which lists all of the sustainability practices implemented by the organisation that you are investigating. You will get this information from an annual sustainability report produced by the organisation. Put these practices into relevant groups such as energy or water. Use the GRI reporting standards as a guide. Remember you need to cover both environmental and social practices. Once completed the table serves as your data which you interpret to answer the key criteria for the report (see the dot points above or the rubric on the following pages).

We started off almost a century ago as a nine-stool root beer stand in Washington, D.C., and evolved into a world leader in hospitality. From day one, we have empowered people and helped to build stable communities, starting with our own associates and guests. Today, our sustainability and social impact platform, Serve 360: Doing Good in Every Direction, is uplifting people around the world. We successfully completed the first full year of the program in 2018, guided by four priority areas, or what we call “coordinates”: • Nurture Our World – Advancing the resiliency and development of our communities • Sustain Responsible Operations – Reducing the company’s environmental impacts, sourcing responsibly, and building and operating sustainable hotels, while mitigating climate-related risk • Empower Through Opportunity – Helping people and businesses explore opportunity in the hospitality industry • Welcome All and Advance Human Rights – Creating a safe and welcoming environment for associates and travelers Under Serve 360, we continue to address significant global issues by collaborating with non-governmental organizations (NGOs), industry peers, associates, guests, owners, corporate customers, suppliers, and other business stakeholders to implement actionable solutions and enhance valuable programs, allowing us to have a positive impact on our business, our communities, and the environment. Driven by our people-first culture, we engage associates through the support of their overall health and wellbeing. This includes growing our network of on-property activators, or “Champions,” for our signature TakeCare wellbeing program, to nearly 15,000 associates. We launched our internal “Respect for All” initiative to reiterate our commitment to inclusion and we are redefining the priorities of TakeCare to demonstrate how we provide opportunity, purpose, and a sense of community for all associates. We expanded our inclusive growth strategy and youth engagement programs last year, including advancing women across every part of our business and rolling out large-scale youth initiatives in several of our regions. We have deepened our partnerships with organizations helping people from underserved communities find their path to meaningful careers in the hospitality industry. Our responsible operations efforts continue to grow, as we aim to reduce waste through single-use plastic initiatives. This includes our work to remove plastic straws and stirrers globally, eliminating an estimated 1 billion plastic straws and at least 250 million plastic stirrers per year. In 2018, we began replacing tiny single-use toiletry bottles with larger, pump-topped bottles across select-service hotels in North America. In 2019, we are expanding this initiative across most of our other hotels, switching single-use shower toiletry bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and bath gel to larger bottles with pump dispensers. When fully implemented across the globe, the expanded toiletry program is expected to prevent 500 million tiny bottles annually from going to landfill. We continue to support local communities and environments through reforestation activities and other natural capital investments. In 2018, we celebrated the 10-year anniversary of our partnership with the Amazonas Sustainable Foundation (FAS) and the State of Amazonas in Brazil, in which ninety-nine percent of the Juma Sustainable Development Reserve remains preserved. We made huge strides last year in our efforts to advance human trafficking awareness and prevention. At year-end 2018, more than 500,000 associates had been trained on human trafficking awareness. We also reaffirmed our commitment to prevent human trafficking by becoming a signatory of the ECPAT Code of Conduct, and the first corporate partner of the Global Fund to End Modern Slavery to create hospitality training to aid survivors on their path to self-sufficiency. As J.W. Marriott, Sr. always said, “success is never final.” We remain committed to working to address the world’s most pressing issues. Today, I invite you to read this report, where we share our progress and journey with you, as we continue
