Sadek...'The trainings are a great stepping stone for their careers'

Mövenpick West Bay Doha continues to support Right4Children

DOHA, August 29, 2016

Mövenpick Hotel West Bay Doha is continuing its partnership with Right4Children, an organisation in Nepal that helps disadvantaged young people by giving them the opportunity to train and work in the hospitality industry.

The apprentices undergo basic training within the housekeeping, kitchen, bell service and food and beverage departments and attend classes to improve their English knowledge and customer service skills until they are ready to assume a full-time job at the hotel.
Since 2013 to date, the hotel has hired 18 people from Right4Children and is looking to hire at least five more employees before the end of 2016.
 
The vision behind the programme is to empower and strengthen disadvantaged and vulnerable young people and give them the right tools and knowledge to create better opportunities for their lives and career, which is in line with the hotel’s continuing commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility.

“It is truly rewarding to see these young individuals develop into their roles in the hotel,” said Ghada Sadek, general manager. “The trainings that they undergo with us are a great stepping stone for their careers, and we are proud to see them grow in Mövenpick Hotel West Bay Doha.”

Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts has a global partnership with Right4Children that started in 2009. As a result a total of 135 young persons have benefited from the training programme across hotels in the Middle East.

This significant collaboration is part of Shine, the global sustainability programme of Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts. Through Shine, Mövenpick aims to give back and contribute to the prosperity of each destination where the hotel company operates. Shine’s practices are grouped around three key pillars – Environment, Employer and Social Sustainability, with Education forming the common thread and key focus. - TradeArabia News Service
