WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT

Empower career and business growth to promote prosperity and create a thriving local industry


2025 PILLAR AMBITION
7 MILLION HOURS OF WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT TRAINING

Sands China’s City of Gourmet - Youth Development and Integration Programme was awarded the Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) Gold Awards 2022 in the Young Empowerment Initiative category. A 20-segment series designed to develop skills-based young talents, especially in the food and beverage industry, the programme inspires the young generation with various star chefs offering master chef classes and support spanning pre-employment, onboarding, and after employment.

"I was attracted to join this program because of the horizontal career development opportunities and the opportunity to obtain international certifications in the F&B industry... In less than two years I have rotated through Chinese, Western, and Japanese restaurants, as well as the Catering Sales and Marketing department."

CAROLINA LOU, ASSISTANT MANAGER OF HIRO

SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESS AND PARTNER DEVELOPMENT

We work with our suppliers and partners to build mutually beneficial relationships that help them advance their businesses.

From a local to global stage, we are committed to support transformation and expansion of local SMEs by providing them with the skills, knowledge and opportunities to grow into international brands. We have partnered with Vastcom Technology since 2014, and have supported the development of their workforce by providing practical business training, including management skills and global technology insights. Vastcom has grown from a small local SME into a multi-national company, and is now also working with our sister property Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.

These new benefits are the first among Macao integrated resort operators, and aim to offer flexibility to mothers who may face unpredictable physical issues during the early stages of returning to work.
