Sands China has been awarded the Great Place To Work Certification™ following its first-ever assessment by the global authority on workplace culture. This milestone makes Sands China the first integrated tourism and leisure enterprise in Greater China to earn the prestigious certification.
The certification is based on anonymous employee feedback through the Trust Index™ Survey and an evaluation of workplace culture and management practices. In the assessment, 96 percent of surveyed team members agreed that Sands China is a great place to work, while the company achieved an average score of 92 percent across the five key categories of Credibility, Respect, Fairness, Pride, and Camaraderie.
Commenting on the recognition, Grant Chum, CEO & Executive Director of Sands China Ltd., said: “We are honoured that Sands China has become the first integrated tourism and leisure enterprise in the Greater China region to earn the Great Place To Work Certification™. The significance of this accolade extends beyond recognition from an authoritative international organization. It also reflects the immense trust that our 28,000 team members have placed in the company and their strong belief in the people-centric corporate culture we have cultivated together over the years.”
He continued: “It is this deep trust and cohesion that inspires our team to maintain a unified focus – continuously elevating our operational excellence, enhancing service quality, and setting new industry standards. This recognition reinforces our strong confidence in Sands China’s long-term development and our belief that through our collective efforts, the company will continue to advance and scale new heights. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to every team member for their unwavering dedication and outstanding contributions. Moving forward, Sands China remains committed to supporting the Macao SAR government’s talent development strategies. We will continue to expand career advancement opportunities for local talent while collaborating across sectors to foster Macao’s economic diversification and reinforce its positioning as a World Centre of Tourism and Leisure.”
The certification builds on Sands China’s recognition as a “Top Employer” for two consecutive years since 2025 by the Top Employers Institute. Together, the two certifications highlight the company’s strong performance in talent development, employee well-being, and workplace culture.
As Macao’s largest private employer, Sands China continues to focus on attracting, developing, and retaining talent through people-centred HR initiatives. Through the Sands China Academy’s eight specialised sub-academies, team members receive professional training across a wide range of disciplines, with cumulative training hours exceeding 22.6 million by the end of 2025.
The company also promotes employee well-being and inclusion through family-friendly policies, AI-powered health monitoring tools, and diversity initiatives, including creating job opportunities for people with disabilities. By the end of 2026, nearly 15,000 team members are expected to have completed 10 years or more of service, demonstrating their strong connection to the company and its corporate culture.
