Sands China has announced a discretionary bonus of one month’s salary for 99% of the company’s full-time employees, stating it is a token of appreciation for the efforts and hard work of its team members in 2024. In addition, a salary increase will be granted to eligible employees in March.
The discretionary bonus will be paid to non-management team members who have been with the company for one year or more. For management team members, the discretionary bonus will be paid based on their individual performance, the company’s Management Incentive Plan, and financial results.
Team members who have worked for Sands China for less than one year will receive prorated bonuses if they joined the company before 1 October 2024 and are still employed on the bonus payout date.
At the same time, Sands also announced a salary increase effective 1 March 2025, marking the company’s second salary increase since the outbreak. Eligible full-time team members earning monthly salaries up to MOP$16,000 (before tax) will receive a pay rise of MOP$600, resulting in a salary increase of between 3.8% and 5.0%. Eligible full-time team members earning monthly salaries above MOP$16,000 (before tax) will receive a 2.5% pay rise.
