Marriott Hotels in the UK have achieved 14th place in the Sunday Times 20 Best Big Companies to Work For list, announced on Sunday 9th March 2008.
The Sunday Times award highlighted Marriott’s positive and supportive management style, associates’ appreciation of a strong sense of family and teamwork, and a company operating on strong principles. Associates were also proud to work for the company.
In May 2005, Marriott assumed the management of all of the UK hotels and their employees (known as associates). Since then Marriott has implemented a programme of transformation which includes refurbishment of hotels, systems and sales force integration and a major emphasis on associates and the HR function.
This process has included bringing all associates into the same pay and benefits system, developing new links with local communities, and educational institutions to recruit and develop new talent, and through programmes such as Spirit to Serve and Environmental Awareness Month, underlined Marriott’s commitment to being a responsible corporate citizen.
The success of these efforts is reflected in the widespread recognition of Marriott’s commitment to being an excellent employer and developer of people. In addition to the Sunday Times award, Marriott in the UK has recently received the Investors in People 2007 award (all 60 UK hotels were included); Best Companies Accreditation 2008 for Workplace Engagement; and three UK National Springboard Awards 2007.
