The Hotel and Restaurant Association of the Philippines (HRAP) Environment Committee, formed and activated in 1996 published a manual that will address the environmental issues and problems of their industry. Through the support of The Asia Foundation (TAF) and in collaboration with PBE, the Environmental Management Manual for Restaurant Operators (EMMRO) was released. EMMRO is designed with the following objectives:
- To integrate environmental concerns into the various functions of restaurant management
- To identify opportunities for waste minimization and lessening of adverse environmental damage
Data for this manual was sourced from a nationwide survey of restaurants with a total number of 116 respondents. These restaurants were classified into fine dining, mid-range, cafeteria, catering, fastfoods, and restaurants in hotels.
The Manual promotes the following:
(1) Reduction
in raw material usage and waste generation;
(2) Compliance to local government and company environmental standards;
and
(3) Ease of implementation in terms of manpower, technology, and investment
requirements.
