"Marriott implements an ongoing risk management process to identify, prevent and mitigate relevant human rights risks. Our internal audit department conducts an annual Ethical Conduct Survey across a broad section of associates, including all officers and senior managers. We provide associates with a variety of means, including anonymous channels, to report unethical behaviour. This includes a toll-free international Business Integrity Hotline. The Company does not tolerate any retaliation against individuals who raise concerns in good faith and has policies in place to protect such individuals.

 

For the past twenty years, Marriott has implemented a crisis reporting protocol that includes a twenty-four hour Crisis Hotline managed by independent third parties and available to global properties to access. For example, Marriott implements the Marriott Incident Reporting Application (MIRA), which is an online system for gathering and reporting security-related incidents, including human trafficking, for properties managed by Marriott outside of the U.S. These managed properties are required to enter incidents into MIRA within 24 hours after the incident occurred or was reported. Critical incidents, including suspicious activity around human trafficking, are flagged by the system for follow-up and investigated by regional Global Safety and Security Directors."
