NH Collection Gran Hotel
Zaragoza, Spain
OUR CORPORATE
RESPONSIBILITY
In 2015, NH Hotel Group made progress in its commitment in the area of Corporate Responsibility by establishing roles
at the highest level within the Board of Directors and preparing a Corporate Responsibility Policy, which serves as the
framework for the commitment of both the Company and the Managing Team in implementing a socially responsible
management.
CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY ON THE BOARD
OF DIRECTORS
This year, on the basis of the recommendations set out in the new Good Governance Code of Listed Companies, the
name of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee was changed to Appointments, Remuneration and Corporate
Governance Committee. Its new functions, additional to those which have already been exercising, include approving,
and ensuring compliance with the Corporate Responsibility Policy and the Corporate Responsibility Plans by submitting
all necessary Reports and Indicators to the Board.
CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY POLICY
The Company’s Corporate Responsibility Policy was drafted in late 2015 and approved by the Board of Directors in
early 2016. The purpose of the Policy is to establish the basic principles and general framework for action in relation
to the management of Corporate Responsibility practices. The Policy also serves as a basis for integrating Corporate
Responsibility into the business model of NH Hotel Group.
At NH Hotel Group, we operate our hotel business with the ambition of leading the responsible behaviour , creating shared
value at an economic, social and environmental level, wherever we are present. We strive to offer unique experiences to
our clients at the Group’s hotels, as well as to our employees; to be active in the communities where we live and in caring
for the environment. This allows us to transmit the ethical and responsible business principles that guide the way we work.
These responsible commitments define us and that is how they are expressed in the Corporate Responsibility Policy, which
also explains how they translate into our daily tasks.
The Board of Directors is responsible for approving the Corporate Responsibility Policy of NH Hotel Group, which is
submitted by the Management Team, and monitoring its evolution and compliance every year. The Appointments,
Remunerations and Corporate Governance Committee is charged with promoting the implementation and fulfilment
of the Corporate Responsibility Policy and Plans. For its part, the Company’s Management Team is responsible for
the development and execution of the Corporate Responsibility Policy and Plans, reporting on their evolution to the
Appointments, Remuneration and Corporate Governance Committee.
