On page 2, under 'Our Efforts to Prevent Human Trafficking':
"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."
Then under 'Human Rights Awareness Programme', page 2:
"The purpose of the training “Your Role in Preventing Human Trafficking: Know the Signs” is to raise awareness of all forms of human trafficking and educate associates on the indicators and what they can do should they suspect potential issues. At the beginning of 2017, we made human trafficking awareness training a requirement for all on-property associates across both managed and franchised properties. [...] At year-end 2017, a total of 243,000 associates globally had completed human trafficking awareness training."
On page 3 under 'Supply Chain Responsibility':
"Associates with procurement and purchasing responsibilities are required to complete our Procurement 101 online training, which includes information on our human rights policies. In 2017, approximately 10,280 associates globally completed the training."
Further under 'Global Safety and Security':
" Since 2011, an internal training developed by Marriott called
Human Rights and the Protection of Children has been included in the company’s Loss Prevention Certification programme available to security staff at non-U.S. managed hotels. Human trafficking is
also included in our training “Security is Everyone’s esponsibility” which is available in English and Spanish. In the U.K., each managed hotel has a Safety and Security Champion trained on the signs of human trafficking."
Finally, para 2 on page 4 states:
"We continue to partner with the American Hotel and Lodging Association (AH&LA) to make the training widely available to other hospitality companies and academia."
