Health & Safety Week

As in previous years, Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa in Balluta Bay has organised a very successful Health & Safety week, with an array of interesting related activities spread out between the 10th and the 15th of October 2011.
The Health & Safety committee of the hotel, led by Health & Safety Manager Joseph Zammit, has once again come up with great initiatives primarily aimed at offering a safer workplace to the hotel’s employees. This series of events is strongly encouraged by Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, the mother company of Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa. During the week, talks on various themes were organised: manual food handling, health & safety at the workplace, the importance of recycling waste, etc. Workshops for Le Méridien associates were also put together to present subjects such as food handler’s training and HACCP training.

“It was a very rewarding and eventful week” states Joseph Zammit who instigated the full organisation of the week. “We had a great turn-out to most of the events and an even better feed-back! After a couple of years of hard work to get everyone involved, mentalities have changed and we can now witness a true interest from both our staff and our local community”.

A breakfast suited to the corporate needs

St Julians, Malta – October 7th, 2011

Abundant Corporate Breakfast options

Throughout the past 5 years, Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa has established itself as the No 1 address for hosting corporate entities and their individual clientele. The hotel also strives to adapt itself to the ever-changing market needs. With corporate travelling budgets still very much under scrutiny due to stuttering economies in mainland Europe, Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa acknowledges the fact that clients have become more conscious and savvy on how to allocate and spend their travelling funds. In line with mainland European trends, corporate clients largely book their accommodation on a Room Only basis and opt for smaller and lighter breakfasts outside hotel premises.

Le Méridien boasts Maltese Culture for World Tourism Day

St Julians, Malta – September, 30th 2011

Since 1980, the United Nations World Tourism Organization has been celebrating World Tourism Day every year, on September 27. It is on that specific date, in 1970, that the Statutes of the UNWTO were adopted. The adoption of these Statutes is considered a milestone in global tourism. The purpose of World Tourism Day is to raise awareness on the role of tourism within the international community and to demonstrate how it affects social, cultural, political and economic values worldwide.
