SUSTAINABLE OPERATION

Creta Maris Resort’s sustainable development issues are discussed with the Management Team via the Group’s Sustainability Committee, which assists in formulating the policies, strategies, and programs that touch on the Group’s Sustainable Governance. The Committee:

• Monitors, reviews, and evaluates the Resort’s sustainability performance.
• Examines, analyzes, and contributes to the Resort’s additional sustainable governance actions.
• Reviews sustainability goals and monitors the Resort’s progress concerning these goals.
• Provides advice to the Board of Directors in relation to the determination, assessment, and management of sustainable development-related risks, indicatively including climate change and food security.

In 2022, within the framework of the Sustainability Committee, a special sub-committee entitled “Audit & Implementation Body” was established, aiming at the Group’s more direct and holistic management of Sustainable Development issues, the alignment with the fields of application of the Sustainable Development strategy and the maximum utilization of the resulting benefits. 

Respecting people’s privacy and rights is paramount for Creta Maris Resort. Information systems must be protected to the highest possible degree; therefore, we implement a Data Security Policy, which aims at ensuring confidentiality and guarantees that the information systems work properly.

At Creta Maris Resort, we recognize the importance of personal data protection; therefore, we implement the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and process personal data in accordance with European legislation. Our people – our employees, guests, and partners – are at the core of our commitments, and thus, respecting and protecting their personal data is our main concern.

We ensure that our employees’ cooperation in maintaining our guests’ privacy is achieved through annual training as well as the initial training for any new employee.

Following all Hygiene, Food & Safety standards, the Resort received Hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) & ISO 22000 certifications, which demonstrate the high priority that the Resort places on food hygiene and safety. To further ensure the safety of all employees and guests, our resort organizes an annual evacuation drill under different evacuation drill scenarios each time, designed to test the preparedness and sound organization of the resort’s emergency management teams.

Moreover, the resort is constantly at the forefront of design and continuous updating of a comprehensive and coherent prevention strategy, which includes maintenance of safe facilities, compliance with strict standards, regular audits, and the employees’ active participation through ongoing safety training for the prevention and avoidance of any accidents and the proper management of emergency situations that could jeopardize the health and wellbeing of our staff and guests.
