Sands China launches new training program

Sands China Ltd. is pioneering a new staff development program, offering employees the chance to master cross-departmental skills.
Staff who join the Integrated Resort Team Member Program will have the chance to train in a department of their choice, including entertainment, food and beverage, conventions and exhibitions, Sands Rewards Club, and hotel operations. As a result, they will enjoy expanded skill sets, giving them the ability to rotate between their original and their newly trained department, to support the needs of both. The program essentially creates employees who are cross-departmental and multi-skill proficient, in contrast with the traditional setup of single-department employees.
“We want to help create team members who are truly multi-talented leaders in the integrated resort industry,” said Ciaran Carruthers, senior vice president of property operations for Sands China Ltd. “This innovative new initiative does that by investing in our workforce. Helping them develop new skill sets further strengthens an already solid foundation, and that benefits our team members, the industry, and Macau as a whole. We hope efforts like this will help support the Macau government’s push to diversify the city and its labor force beyond gaming.”
