At Saltus Travel, we are dedicated to promoting responsible and sustainable tourism practices that support the well-being of local communities, preserve natural and cultural heritage, and minimize our environmental impact. As a leading Destination Management Company (DMC) in Jordan, we recognize that tourism has the power to shape the future of destinations, and we believe it is our responsibility to contribute positively.
Our policy is built on the following three core pillars: Environmental Stewardship, Social Responsibility, and Economic Sustainability.
Our Sustainability Pillars
Environmental Stewardship
We are committed to reducing our environmental footprint. Our initiatives include:
- Reducing energy consumption and promoting energy-efficient practices.
- Minimizing waste by promoting recycling and eliminating single-use plastics.
- Encouraging sustainable travel options such as eco-friendly tours and low-impact accommodations.
- Offsetting carbon emissions through reforestation and renewable energy projects.
Social Responsibility
We actively support local communities and cultures in Jordan. Our efforts include:
- Partnering with local businesses, artisans, and suppliers who practice sustainability.
- Promoting cultural heritage through educational tours and experiences.
- Supporting community-based tourism initiatives that directly benefit local residents.
- Ensuring fair wages, diversity, and equal opportunities for all our employees.
Economic Sustainability
We operate with integrity and transparency, promoting responsible tourism. This includes:
- Sourcing products and services from local, sustainable providers.
- Supporting the local economy by prioritizing locally owned hotels, restaurants, and transportation services.
- Regularly publishing sustainability reports to keep our stakeholders informed of our progress.
- Educating our clients on responsible travel practices to minimize their impact while visiting Jordan.
How We Achieve Our Goals
Our sustainability efforts are guided by clear objectives and measurable actions. We track our progress through regular internal audits, stakeholder engagement, and annual sustainability reports. Some of the key steps we are taking include:
- Implementing a Responsible Procurement Policy to ensure that 90% of our purchases meet sustainability criteria.
