Report Highlights

Hyatt released its inaugural corporate responsibility report, which details the company’s commitment to managing business responsibly. In this report, Hyatt shares with its stakeholders its progress and commitment to efficient and responsible operations, to minimize the environmental impact of its hotels, and to be a catalyst for positive change in the communities in which its hotels operate.

The report includes several 2011 highlights and accomplishments in regards to responsible business, including:

  • Hyatt unveiled its global corporate responsibility platform, Hyatt Thrive -- designed to help make communities places where Hyatt associates are proud to work, where guests want to visit, where neighbors want to live and where hotel owners want to invest. The platform is grounded in four key pillars that Hyatt believes are crucial to thriving communities: environmental sustainability, economic development and investment, education and personal advancement, and health and wellness
  • Hyatt added eleven newly-built hotels, which created nearly 4,500 new jobs
  • Hyatt associates devoted more than 30,000 hours – or 3,750 days – of volunteer time in 2011, 2/3 of which supported education and health initiatives around the world
  • Hyatt formalized a disaster relief and response team and process to coordinate philanthropic efforts for national disasters
  • 14,900 associates participated in Hyatt Earth Training which helps associates identify ways to further reduce environmental impacts  - both at their hotels and in their personal lives
  • Nearly $4.8 million in charitable giving and volunteer service was donated on behalf of Hyatt through the company, associates, owners and guests at full service, managed hotels

The report is a reflection of the company’s longstanding commitment to responsible business practices and it highlights the powerful impact Hyatt’s 90,000 associates in 45 countries worldwide are making in their local communities.
