A NEW CULTURE
NH Hotel Group’s new culture expresses what we are, what we want to do and
how we do it. The Company has defined new beliefs based on this new culture,
which inspire the employees’ everyday activities and motivate them to achieve
our vision.
Under this new culture, NH has laid down the foundations that will help to achieve
the Strategic Plan goals, thus promoting the change and progress towards a
leadership model.
DIVERSE STAFF
The Company has an extremely varied staff with employees of 139
nationalities, 13.6% of whom work in countries other than their place of origin.
The decrease in the average number of employees when compared to the
previous year is mainly accounted for by the sale of 97% of the NH Hotel
Group’s shareholding in Sotogrande and the fact that the Company has
ceased to be involved in non-strategic hotels over the past financial year.
All the Business Units have shown a decrease in staff numbers, except the
Business Unit of America, where the number of employees has increased by
3.5%, accounted for by a significant rise in the occupation of the hotels being
managed, especially those in the Dominican Republic, together with a rise in
their income.
All the employees (100%) are covered by the collective bargaining agreement.
