May 13, 2014 - Dorsett Hospitality International was most recently awarded the Caring Company Logo by The Hong Kong Council of Social Service in recognition of its commitment in caring for the community, caring for the employees and caring for the environment over the past years.

Launched by The Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKCSS) in 2002, the Caring Company Scheme (the Scheme) aims at cultivating good corporate citizenship. It is specifically geared to building strategic partnerships among businesses and non-profit organisations to create a more cohesive society.

Besides cultivating corporate social responsibility, the Scheme also endeavours to promote partnership between the business and the social welfare sectors. Through cross-sectoral activities and exchanges, the two sectors can get to know and understand each other and develop community projects matching with community needs.

At Dorsett Hospitality International, our CSR initiatives are fully integrated into our work culture and the way we manage our businesses, from caring for the environment, the local community to our people. The group and its portfolio of hotels have consistently demonstrated its support for the less fortunate and continuously award scholarships and financial assistance to deserving students to pursue higher learning; supports the Asian Youth Orchestra cultural programme and HK Phil; and actively organises charity events to raise funds for various charitable organisations, both in Hong Kong and in locations where the group operates.

“I am a firm advocate in serving our society and it pleases me to note that our hotels in Hong Kong are also recognised for their contributions. Dorsett Kwun Tong was also awarded the 'Caring Company' logo and also the special award 'Barrrier-free Companies/Organisations' for their excellent achievement in developing barrier-free environment and culture to care for different groups in the community', said Winnie Chiu, president and executive director of Dorsett Hospitality International.

'Three other hotels in our portfolio namely Cosmopolitan Hotel Hong Kong, Cosmo Hotel Hong Kong and Dorsett Mongkok, Hong Kong were recently honoured with the Corporate Citizenship Logo Award 2014 by the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC). This recognition celebrates the hotels' ongoing outstanding achievements in implementing social responsibility through partnering with various social enterprises,' added Winnie Chiu. Cosmo Hotel Hong Kong and Dorsett Mongkok most recently attained EarthCheck Bronze Benchmarked Logo 2014.
