While remaining silent on the planned opening of the US$58M Guyana Marriott Hotel, Chairman of Atlantic Hotel Inc (AHI), Winston Brassington released a statement yesterday calling criticisms over staff recruitment without merit and saying that 239 persons have been hired.
In a press release, the chairman revealed that the proposed five-star hotel will open with a permanent staff of 239 which he noted would “double” upon the completion of the casino and entertainment complex.
Brassington stated that less than five percent of the staff are from overseas.
In the press release he said that of the 29 members of the management team, 20 are Guyanese.
