COVID-19 HYGIENE & SAFETY PROTOCOLS

Throughout our history of nearly a century, The Peninsula Hotels has weathered many highs and lows. We believe it is our strong legacy, resilience and exceptional heritage which enables us to overcome adversity and emerge stronger.

As a Hong Kong headquar tered company, we believe our experience from the 2003 SARS crisis places us at the forefront of setting the standards for hygiene and safety measure standards within the luxury hospitality sector.

As we begin to emerge from the current crisis, the safety, health and wellbeing of our guests and our employees remains our highest priority. We are committed to providing an exceptional and unparalleled experience, including increased health and hygiene measures that go beyond the necessary protocols required by local government authorities. Many of these effor ts will be noticeable, such as the distancing of tables, face masks worn by employees and temperature checks. We are also making an enormous effor t behind the scenes with several initiatives that will not be noticeable to guests. While some of these effor ts may be temporary, The Peninsula Hotels is committed to continue to review and re�ne our protocols to ensure our guests continue to enjoy relaxing and memorable Peninsula moments.

• While already present in some of our hotels, each hotel will have a dedicated Hygiene Manager. This position repor ts directly to the Hotel Manager and through training, inspection and laboratory testing is responsible for ensuring that the hotel’s high hygiene standards are met in guest rooms, public spaces, restaurants and bars, spa, �tness centre, transpor tation �eet, back-of-house area and any space where guests and employees are present.

• New processes and increased frequency of cleaning of air �lters and air handling units have been implemented.

• Dedicated housekeeping teams continue to provide best-in-class service through a regimented procedure that prioritises areas of the guestrooms to ensure there is no cross contamination and that the environment remains clean throughout the process. We have also increased the sanitising of frequently touched sur faces in public areas and guest rooms, such as telephones, remote controls and tablets.

• Trialling the utilisation of new cleaning technologies and advancements, such as Premium Purity and Germagic. These products, when applied to sur faces, become self-disinfecting with the ability to decompose bacteria, viruses and airborne mould spores. Also, we are working with par tners who use UV technology to ensure hospital grade disinfection.

• Conducting post Covid-19 process training, developed for employees to ensure they are well-prepared to provide a safe, clean and secure environment.

• Requiring all third-par ty providers to ensure their adherence to Peninsula’s str ict cleaning standards for any service provided, such as car transpor tation.

• Colour coding system for cleaning supplies is being utilised to ensure no inadver tent contamination of guest and public areas.
