awards, highlighting the company’s focus on

industry.
Sands China
received a 2019 VeryEast
Award for Best Employer

The VeryEast Awards
are the most well-known awards in mainland
China’s tourism and hospitality industry,
and have been held for the last six years.
The awards feature hundreds of brands in
industries such as hotel, food and beverage,

others.
The company was also
a winner in the 2019 Greater China
Employer Branding Creativity
Awards, and was recognised with
three awards: Best Creative
Copywriting of Employer Brand,
Best Innovative Employee C&B
Program, and Best
Social Recruitment Program. The
annual awards are co-organised by renowned
HR organisations and employer brand experts
in Greater China Wings, K Talks and HRflag,
and aim to honour companies with
high-profile and innovative employer brands
that demonstrate the power of employer
branding to a wider audience. Only around 50
companies were awarded out of 405 nominees
that included Tencent, Kraft Heinz and
WeWork, with Sands China as the only winner
from
Macao.
Wen Hongyan, senior
vice president of human resources for Sands
China Ltd., was invited to share her
insights on the latest trends in employer
brand communications at a roundtable
discussion at the awards
ceremony.
“As Macao’s largest
integrated resort operator and private
employer, Sands China believes that
nurturing talent is the major driver of
sustaining the company and the community’s
development,” said Wen. “We are pleased that
our innovative approaches are being
recognised by human resource organisations
in Greater China. This achievement
encourages us to continue contributing to
Macao’s growth as a world centre of tourism
and leisure, and to play a leading role in
helping build Macao into an international
talent incubator in the Greater Bay
Area.”
Sands China is
committed to developing a well-trained
workforce, and offers a variety of
horizontal and vertical mobility
opportunities to its team members through
internal promotions and integrated resort
career development programmes. The company
is dedicated to providing horizontal and
vertical management talent development and
professionalism training for its team
members. It also has expanded its focus to
providing training for the development of
industry professionals outside of Sands
China in order to create a talent pool for
the city’s future development. The company
delivered more than 1.7 million training
hours to team members and Macao locals in
2018 alone, and recently celebrated the
graduation of a total of 6,200 participants
from Sands China’s talent development
initiatives in
