TUI Group signs up to Safer Tourism Pledge
TUI Group has teamed up with independent charity, the Safer Tourism Foundation.
It has signed up to the Safer Tourism Pledge, which puts in place protocols on traveller risk, health and safety.
The Pledge was created to recognise businesses that have excellent safety systems in place and put collaboration ahead of competition when it comes to customer safety.
Safer Tourism reviews the safety management systems of companies while companies in turn agree to adhere to the Safer Tourism Pledge’s six commitments:
Share Safer Tourism’s mission – Pledge partners fully support the Safer Tourism Foundation’s mission to save lives and reduce preventable injury and harm to travellers
Safety excellence – They will do all they can to keep travellers safe and well when travelling and demand the same high standards of those who work with them
Advise and inform – Safer Tourism Pledge partners provide travellers with practical advice and information to help them take responsibility for their own safety
Highly responsive – Pledge partners want to hear about genuine concerns travellers have for their safety so that issues can be resolved quicky
Sharing data and best practices – Pledge partners commit to working collaboratively and sharing travel safety knowledge, for the benefit of everyone
Influence for improvement – Partners work with providers around the world and commit to using their influence to improve health and safety standards
Marc Jordan, Director of Security, Health & Safety, Crisis and BCM at TUI said, “The Safer Tourism Pledge partnership further cements our drive for improvement in the safety culture across the industry.”
The new partnership follows Safer Tourism Foundation’s recent rebrand, with a new logo, branding and website.
It includes the Safer Tourism Badge, allowing travellers to easily identify and recognise those travel businesses that have signed up.
