Clarification on Online Video
(Macao,
February
19, 2020) –
Regarding a recent video
circulating on social media purporting to
show Sands China’s current team member
accommodations, Sands China wishes to
clarify that the video in question was taken
during a typhoon in the past and shows a
temporary rest area prepared for team
members on duty.
The company takes
the health and wellbeing of team members
very seriously, and is committed to taking
welfare measures such as providing hotel
accommodations for team members in need of
temporary housing during this difficult time
of the novel coronavirus
outbreak.
Sands China
expresses concern over the misleading
information about the company which has been
circulating and subsequently causing
unnecessary anxiety among the public, at a
time when the company is fully committed to
its virus-fighting efforts. Sands China
wishes to clarify that the rumour is not
true, and reserves the right to take legal
action.
Sands China
reiterates that the company has implemented
a series of preventive measures across its
properties in order to safeguard the health
and safety of guests and team members – in
accordance with guidelines from the Health
Bureau and the Gaming Inspection and
Coordination
Bureau.
