The project:
OKKO HOTELS has pioneered as the first hotel brand to adopt the status of "Société à Mission," embedding a robust commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) directly into its legal framework as of March 2023. This innovative approach integrates legal obligations and external audits, reinforcing the company's dedication to sustainable practices and stakeholder engagement.
Aligned with its mission statement, OKKO HOTELS strives to harmonize the hospitality industry with environmental and social considerations. Their hotels are designed to offer high-end hospitality with ecological sobriety, aiming for a neutral or positive impact on the environment. This commitment extends to caring for guests and staff, respecting local communities, selecting sustainable solutions with partners, and promoting environmentally conscious lifestyles.
Communication and implementation of these goals are transparent and inclusive, involving employees, customers, and partners in collaborative efforts. Annual mission reports detail progress and operational achievements, fostering accountability and collective participation in achieving shared objectives.
External audits and KPIs ensure rigorous evaluation of performance, complemented by oversight from an independent mission committee. This structured approach reinforces OKKO HOTELS' commitment to sustainable development and sets a benchmark for integrating CSR into corporate strategy effectively.
