Gurugram, May 04: Radisson Hotel Group has released its 2025 Responsible Business Report, highlighting significant progress in its journey toward Net Zero and its continued commitment to people, communities, and the planet.

The report outlines how sustainability remains central to the Group’s strategy amid evolving guest expectations, climate challenges, and regulatory requirements. With a clear goal of achieving Net Zero by 2050, Radisson Hotel Group is embedding sustainability into its operations through a structured five-year roadmap focused on energy efficiency, electrification, renewable energy, and responsible resource management.

A major milestone in 2025 was the launch of the Group’s first Verified Net Zero hotels, demonstrating a scalable and practical model for reducing emissions across both new and existing properties while maintaining high operational standards and guest experience.

The report also highlights progress across its three core pillars — Think People, Think Community, and Think Planet:

Think People:

Radisson Hotel Group continues to prioritize employee well-being, inclusion, and career development across its global workforce of over 75,000 team members in more than 100 countries. The Radisson People Foundation supported over 250 employees in need, while the Group achieved an 84% engagement score and increased women representation in leadership to 31%. Additionally, 206 hotels received Safehotels certification, enhancing safety and security standards.

Think Community:

Through partnerships such as Just a Drop, the Group has helped provide clean water and sanitation access to over 34,000 people. In 2025, it contributed €890,000 in donations and recorded 79,000 volunteer hours globally. The company also earned an EcoVadis Silver Medal, reinforcing its commitment to responsible sourcing.

Think Planet:

The Group has made measurable strides toward decarbonization, including a 23% reduction in emissions intensity per square meter compared to 2019 levels and a 6% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions despite portfolio growth. Currently, 78 hotels operate on 100% renewable electricity. The opening of Verified Net Zero hotels in Manchester City Centre and Oslo City Centre underscores its commitment to sustainable hospitality.

The 2025 report also marks a step forward in transparency, being the Group’s first aligned with the European Union’s Voluntary Sustainability Reporting Standard for SMEs (VSME), reflecting a comprehensive approach to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) priorities.

With continued focus on innovation and accountability, Radisson Hotel Group is advancing its mission to create long-term value while contributing to a more sustainable and inclusive future for the hospitality industry.
