This website has information on Hawaii hotels’ COVID-19 health & safety protocols.

Our commentary on the Prince Waikiki Hotel COVID-19 Health & Safety Protocols

The State of Hawaii issued an emergency proclamation on November 23, 2020 requiring hotels to publish their COVID-19 Health & Safety plans and submit it to the state’s Hawaii Tourism Authority (“HTA”). Below is our commentary on each hotel’s COVID-19 Health & Safety Plans they way they appear on the HTA website so that guests and hospitality workers have a better understanding of these plans.

We examined the protocols for Prince Waikiki as they appeared on the HTA webpage as of 1/5/21, and found the following (among other things):

  • There is no mention of contact tracing. Guests and workers reading these protocols will be left with no information about whether the hotel will collect the information that would be needed to determine who a sick guest or worker was exposed to. They also will not know if the hotel will inform them if they were in contact with a person who tests positive for Covid-19.
  • The protocols have no information about what, if any, measures the hotel may have taken regarding air filtration and HVAC systems at the property.
  • The hotel commits to conducting temperature checks of employees daily and conducting temperature checks for guests at its restaurants.
  • The protocols do not talk about whether employees will receive paid sick leave if they are COVID-positive, awaiting test results, caring for family members or quarantining, or even whether the hotel has a non-punitive policy for employees who want to take sick leave for any of these reasons.
  • Although the protocols mention that hand sanitizer stations have been placed at various locations throughout the hotel including throughout public areas, the only specific location they name is the outside of occupied meeting rooms. Other specific locations cannot be determined from this document. The protocols do state, however, that hand sanitizer and masks will be given to guests at check-in.

Check the HTA site to see if updated protocols are posted.

Do you work at the Prince Waikiki Hotel?

Leave a review below. Based on your observations, has your employer followed COVID-19 health and safety protocols? (e.g. is hand sanitizer and personal protective equipment provided? How much training did you receive on these health and safety protocols?)
