Greening Thailand's Hotels Through Staff-Management Collaboration
While large international hotel chains in Thailand have their own energy-saving practices, many older and mid-sized, locally-owned hotels do not have the resources for major adaptations. The Greener Business Asia project, supported through the ILO-Japan Multi-bilateral Programme and the Prince of Songkla University, has been successfully working with mid-sized hotel operators and their staff in Phuket to come up with innovative practices that are cost-effective to implement and provide incentives for both staff and management alike. These 'green teams' have brought managers and their staff closer together.
