Background

Growing demand for accessible hotel services for individuals with disabilities and the elderly means that offering equal services to all guests is a key point of focus for hotel managers who want to maximize their overall service portfolio.

As such, employing personnel who can cater for the needs of people with disabilities can be a strong point of differentiation between hotels. But ensuring such capabilities is not a straightforward process.

To facilitate selection of the best-suited personnel for any hotel position, PEOPLECERT now offers personnel certifications that will ensure a hotel employee is capable of offering the same service quality to individuals with a disability as to any other client. Employment of certified staff can, in turn, create a distinct competitive advantage for the hotel among its competitors.

For hotel professionals, holding such certification means that they can distinguish themselves from others, making themselves more marketable in the competitive tourism industry.
