The inaugural awards, which were held in the Guinness Storehouse in April, recognise businesses that have demonstrated their commitment to making the tourism industry an appealing and rewarding place to work. They are aimed at driving continued improvement in the quality and perception of careers in tourism.
Over 170 tourism businesses registered to participate in the first intake of the Fáilte Ireland programme which launched in September 2022.
The programme conducted a survey with staff of participating businesses, and the award-winners were chosen based on this employee feedback.
The Gold Award, which comes after Talbot Hotel won certification from the globally prestigious Great Places to Work Programme (GPTW) in December 2022, further consolidates the hotel’s reputation as an excellent employer.
Speaking with the General Manager of the Talbot Hotel Clonmel – William Burke said: “I’m delighted that the Talbot Hotel Clonmel has won a Gold Award at the inaugural Fáilte Ireland Employer Excellence Awards. The fact that this award is based on feedback from our own staff is particularly gratifying. We’d like to thank our staff for paying us this compliment and for continuously maintaining Talbot Hotel Clonmel’s high standards in their interactions with our guests.”
