Our goals for creating safer slopes
We want to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy tourism without fear of discrimination, violence, or harassment. Pyhä Ski Resort has been committed to the principles of safe spaces at its events for several years. It is of utmost importance to us that every customer feels welcome and can be completely themselves in the fells.
Membership as part of our responsibility efforts
Joining the We Speak Gay community is a natural extension of the Rukakeskus Group's social responsibility efforts. We want to strengthen our commitment to being a safe destination for our customers and a responsible employer for our staff, while also serving as a role model for other companies.
What can you do?
Everyone can play a part in creating a safer and more inclusive society. Here are some ways you can make a difference:
- Treat everyone with respect and appreciation.
- Address discriminatory or harassing behavior if you notice it. You can also inform staff about it so they can take action.
- Be open to learning and understanding.
- Encourage others to respect, appreciate, learn from, and understand others.
Together, we can ensure that our ski resorts are safe for everyone. Welcome to the fells – just as you are.
