SAN DIEGO, CA, November 05, 2008
/24-7PressRelease/ -- For management at Holiday Inn San Diego on the Bay, one of the top full-service hotels in San Diego, CA, providing a rewarding and community-conscious work environment for all employees is just as important as providing guests the kind of sharp San Diego accommodations that have made Holiday Inn the area leader since 1969. Under the direction of IHG Human Resources lead Allison Owen, the hotel is doing just that.
The commitment of IHG to its employees is simple but crucial if a property is to succeed. This commitment involves allowing all employees to grow, to perform, to be themselves, to be recognized and rewarded, to be informed and to take the initiative and lead. Ms. Owen and her team have established the "Bravo" award program designed to recognize and celebrate the extraordinary efforts and contributions of employees. Each employee is awarded a certificate that may be redeemed for a generous gift card.
Challenged by IHG to "Chase the Extraordinary", the San Diego hotel hosts quarterly employee luncheons that focus on the rich cultural diversity that Holiday Inns encourage. The forward-thinking San Diego lodging also recently hosted an employee benefit fair that offered healthy living options, energy saving training and employee teambuilding opportunities.
Another way that Holiday Inn encourages the best possible treatment of employees is by setting an example with dedicated efforts to the benefit of the local community. The San Diego hotel is located just steps away from the famous "Big Bay" in a lush and friendly atmosphere that locals and visitors alike are eager to preserve. Allison Owen and management of Holiday Inn San Diego on the Bay recently organized a car wash to raise money for the "Give Kids the World" Foundation. Employees were encouraged to take part in both giving and receiving a wash.
This year, these positive efforts by management and staff alike culminated in a nomination for the San Diego Society for Human Resource Management's Workplace Excellence Award. The award celebrates companies in the San Diego area that employ supportive HR policies and practices that contribute to the success of the business in a significant way.
Although the hotel is not a finalist, the nomination itself is a noteworthy honor. Holiday Inn San Diego on the Bay is proud to be recognized as one of the most employee-driven companies in the San Diego area.
