Thinking and acting sustainably<\/h3><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Responsibility towards the environment is very important to the Hermes Hotel Oldenburg and therefore a key part of the Hermes philosophy. This means basing our actions on ecological principles and constantly reviewing and improving our environmental performance.
\nFor this reason, we have decided to draw up the following points, which reflect our environmental philosophy<\/p>\n<\/div>

  • 1<\/span>
    \n

    Responsibility<\/h3>\n

    As citizens of the world, we are aware of our responsibility towards the environment and consider employee and environmental protection to be an important part of our actions!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

    Integration and training of employees<\/h3>\n

    We communicate this philosophy to our employees through intensive discussions, raising their awareness and motivating them to act in an environmentally friendly manner \u2013 because without our employees, we would not be successful.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

    Raising awareness among guests<\/h3>\n

    Through discussions, we want to learn about improvement processes from hotel guests so that we can implement them at our hotel if necessary.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

    Continuous optimisation of our energy consumption<\/h3>\n

    Through further training in the field of environmental technology, we are constantly optimising our energy consumption. The replacement of environmentally friendly components is a high priority. The energy efficiency upgrade of the hotel building and the heating system in accordance with The possibilities are obvious to us. We therefore decided to operate a geothermal heating system from the end of 2024. Solar thermal energy and PV collectors for electricity generation (with an output of 99 kilowatt peak) on our own and neighbouring roofs help us to become even more climate neutral.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

    \n

    Compliance with current environmental legislation as a matter of course<\/h3>\n

    Compliance with current environmental legislation is a matter of course for us. We strive to make improvements within the scope of our capabilities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  • 6<\/span>
    \n

    Regionality<\/h3>\n

    In order to strengthen local value creation in our region, we work together with regional retailers and farmers and give preference to products and goods from the region. Greater freshness and environmentally friendly production enable us to guarantee better quality in our food and goods. Shorter delivery routes help protect the environment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  • 7<\/span>
    \n

    Selection of our business partners<\/h3>\n

    When selecting our suppliers and business partners, we give preference to companies that contribute to employee appreciation and environmental protection.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  • 8<\/span>
    \n

    Responsible use of resources<\/h3>\n

    Resources are the basis of life for all future generations. For this reason, we are committed to maintaining their ecological performance.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

  • 9<\/span>
    \n

    occupational safety<\/h3>\n

    Motivated, well-trained and satisfied employees ensure operational safety and occupational health and safety in the workplace. We strive to do everything we can to train and raise awareness among our employees in these areas.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3345,"parent":2970,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3349","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3349","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3349"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3349\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3368,"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3349\/revisions\/3368"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2970"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hermes-hotel-oldenburg.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3349"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
