OUR SUSTAINABLE TOURISM POLICY

We are aware that sustainability efforts in tourism minimize the negative impacts on environmental and cultural heritage, and we recognize the responsibilities that come with sustainable tourism. We are striving to leave a better world for future generations.

In this regard, we continue our efforts in many areas encompassed by the concept of sustainability, such as reducing environmental impacts, managing energy, water, and waste, protecting cultural and social heritage, providing economic and social benefits to local communities, and protecting the environment.

We aim to increase our success day by day by focusing on effectively managing sustainability risks and ensuring sustainable growth through long-term strategies.

SUSTAINABILITY IN PROCUREMENT

1. In our business, the use and procurement of local, regional, and area-specific products is preferred.

2. When purchasing machinery and equipment, alternatives that are energy-efficient and/or rated Class A are researched and prioritized.

3. When selecting products to purchase, preference is given to those that are:

• Made from recycled or recyclable materials,

• Produced sustainably or sourced from sustainable resources,

• Certified organic or eco-labeled,

• Delivered with minimal packaging,

• Designed to save energy and water,

• Supplied by vendors that adopt fair trade principles, and

• Compliant with environmental sustainability criteria.

HUMAN RESOURCES

The common characteristics we seek in our team members include the necessary education, experience, and competencies for the position, along with personality traits that align with our corporate culture and values.

• To ensure honest, transparent, fair, respectful, and trust-based relationships,

• To select dynamic and professional human resources from candidates aligned with our corporate culture and goals, and to provide training suitable to our organization.

SUSTAINABLE USE OF WATER AND ENERGY RESOURCES

• Our business has established policies for the regular monitoring, classification, and evaluation of water and energy consumption per guest, with the goal of reducing usage.

• We recognize that minimizing environmental harm starts with minimizing waste. Therefore, a system has been created to monitor wastewater, as well as recyclable and non-recyclable waste.

We have adopted practices in line with our Zero Waste goals.
