ISO 21401 – Management System for Sustainability in Accommodation Facilities
The international standard specifies the environmental, social and economic requirements for the implementation of a management system for sustainability in tourist accommodation facilities. The ISO 21401 standard is applicable to any kind of tourism accommodation, regardless of type, size, or location. The dimensions on which the actions focus are:
Environment
minimize negative environmental impacts and maximize positive ones.
Social
recognise, promote and respect regional cultural heritage and non-predatory traditional and cultural values to contribute to the social and economic development of workers and communities involved in the production chain.
Economic
plan and implement activities and services, taking into account the economic sustainability in the short, medium and long term.
