This new CHSE certification scheme serves as a guarantee for tourists and the public that the products and services provided meet hygiene, health, safety and environmental sustainability protocols. It is one of the strategies to face a period of adaptation to new habits in the tourism and creative economy sector.
After previously Dajuma had received a New Normal Adaptation certificate from the Jembrana Regent, now Dajuma has also registered in the Ministry of Tourism’s Creative Economy CHSE certification program.
On Monday, the officer conducted an audit of the requirements that the hotel must fulfill in order to obtain the certificate.

It is one step further in favor of the protection of our natural and human environnement that we are particularly happy to achieve!
