Under 'Our Efforts to Prevent Human Trafficking' on page 2, goals for training and policy change are indicated:

"In 2017, we launched a new sustainability and social impact platform called Serve 360, with specific goals about human trafficking prevention. Under our Serve 360 platform, one of our four priorities is to Welcome All and Advance Human Rights. By 2025, we have set a goal that 100 percent of on-property associates at managed and franchised hotels will have completed our human rights awareness programme, including training on human trafficking awareness, responsible sourcing and recruitment policies and practices. We have also set a 2025 Goal to enhance or embed human rights criteria in our recruitment and sourcing policies and work with our industry to address human rights risks in the hotel construction phase."

incident occurred or was reported."
