Melco Resorts & Entertainment says it has vaccinated almost 95% of its Macau staff under the company’s “Get the Jab” program.
The program includes an incentive program for staff, with MOP$16 million (US$2 million) earmarked as prizes for staff including MOP$1,000 (US$125) each for all staff who are fully vaccinated.
The company hosted its second MOP$3 million (US$375,000) lucky draw last Friday, awarding MOP$1 million (US$125,000) to each of three vaccinated staff members.
“Macau remains one of the safest regions in the world thanks to the government’s careful handling of the global pandemic, and we applaud the government’s effort to further increase vaccination rates towards the goal of increasing immunity in Macau,” said Melco Chairman and CEO Lawrence Ho.
“Melco continues to encourage vaccination uptake as a key company objective that will help to ensure a safe environment for colleagues, guests and the community at large.
“Thanks to strong participation in the Get the Jab vaccination incentive campaign, Melco’s vaccination rate in Macau has reached close to 95%. We look forward to further travel integration between mainland China and Macau once Macau achieves an acceptable vaccination rate. We remain fully committed to doing our part for the betterment of the community.”
