Berjaya Manila Hotel holds ‘Bayanihan’

Berjaya Manila Hotel, one of the recent top players in hotel industry of the country’s bustling central business district of Makati City, successfully mounted its second “Bayanihan” activity, having its employees sanitize the hotel premises as well as its vicinity at the corner of Makati Avenue and Eduque Streets.

“Bayanihan”, the first of its kind to be hosted by Berjaya Manila Hotel, saw each of the hotel’s employees holding brooms, mops and other cleaning implements for an expedition to a thorough cleaning activity in making sure the hotel appears dazzling, clean and comfortable for its guests.

Sporting identical T-shirts, the participating employees also extended the clean-up activity outside of Berjaya Manila Hotel. They enthusiastically swept the grounds of neighboring areas of Makati Avenue and Eduque Streets, picked the trash and tidied up the vicinity, which consequently resulted in a more appealing, attractive and spotless area, surrounding the hotel.

Berjaya Manila Hotel’s “Bayanihan” clean-up drive hopes to instill the value of cleanliness – not only in one’s personal space, but in the work area as well. It also aims to project good corporate image and encourage other associates of the hotel industry to emulate its initiative in embarking on their own Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative in their respective properties.

With this small gesture as a stepping stone, Berjaya Manila Hotel is optimistic that the value of cleanliness will soon transcend to the whole of the city’s hotel industry in resulting in a business district that is not only clean, but also vibrant and more conducive for both business and leisure, boosting the tourism sector of Philippines.
