Abstract

There is a turn of the industry towards an asset-light business model, which has fundamentally reshaped the hotel industry towards divesting their real estate properties to concentrate on growing in scale through managing and franchising hotels. Although franchise chains are increasingly committed to sustainability transitions, no research to date has focused on modern slavery in the specific case of franchising. Therefore, this paper aims to explore modern slavery risk management in such a business model through a qualitative approach to explore How does the franchised Business Model challenge the management of modern slavery risk in the Hotel sector?
