Our approach is a mixture of implementing progressive policies, promoting good practice through education, awareness, and training; identifying and removing barriers and most importantly to measure our performance and get employee feedback to ensure continuous improvement.
We also celebrate culture and diversity at every opportunity. With over 100 nationalities represented among our workforce of over 5,500 people, we celebrate having a very diverse employee population and we encourage all of our people to bring their individuality to work and to live the Dalata values and culture.
Gender equality, disability, ethnicity, youth, and disadvantaged communities are key on our inclusion agenda. We work with a number of partners to support our strategy, including Open Doors, Employers for Change, Ibec, Valuable 500 and many local organisations in the communities we operate in, particularly supporting employability and inclusive recruitment.
At Dalata Hotel Group we embrace and celebrate diversity at all levels. Therefore, we are delighted to be named as winners of the Diversity and Inclusion Award (Listed and Unlisted Entities) at the Published Account Awards (PAA) 2023.
Our priority is to continue to nurture an inclusive culture, creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, can contribute equally, and can succeed and progress in their careers, without any barriers. Our approach is a mixture of implementing progressive policies, promoting good practice through education, awareness, and training; identifying and removing barriers.
In addition to the PAA, we have been recognised for our Inclusion and Diversity journey by achieving the Investors in Diversity Bronze Award in 2022 and Silver Award in 2023 and we have also been shortlisted for several relevant business awards.
We are committed to ensuring a welcoming atmosphere is not just confined to our guests.
