LAS VEGAS, Aug. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Las Vegas
Sands (NYSE: LVS) was today officially named to Forbes' second
annual list of America's Best-in-State Employers. Forbes and
partner Statista developed the list based on an independent survey
of more than 80,000 workers employed by companies with more than
500 people in their U.S. operations.
"Our company has built an enduring reputation as a global
hospitality and business leader, due in large part to the
dedication of our Team Members and leadership team. Our inclusion
on the Best-in-State Employers list reinforces and validates that
that reputation is well-earned," said Sheldon G. Adelson, Sands chairman and chief
executive officer. "We set the standard for delivering an
exceptional guest experience, maintaining consistently solid
financial operations and being a responsible corporate citizenship
in our communities, making them better places to work and live.
"We pride ourselves in providing an exceptional work
environment, competitive compensation and unmatched benefits
programs for our Team Members. During the coronavirus
pandemic, the health and safety of our Team Members has been our
number one priority. We've made testing widely available for
our Team Members and their families and have put in place strong
safety protocols across our Las
Vegas properties.
"Additionally, while we have seen dramatic decreases in our
business levels, we have continued to provide pay and benefits to
our Team Members from the moment the pandemic began – something we
believe is unequaled in our industry," concluded Mr. Adelson.
As the world's largest developer and operator of world-class
Integrated Resorts serving both the business and leisure tourism
markets, Sands pioneered the convention-based Integrated Resort
model, which combines state-of-the-art meeting and convention
facilities with luxury hotel rooms and suites, gaming, expansive
retail offerings, celebrity-chef restaurants, live entertainment
and a wide-range of other attractions and offerings.
To develop the Best-in-State Employers list, Forbes collaborated
with partner Statista to administer surveys to 80,000 U.S. workers,
using a series of online panels and providing a representative
sample of the country's workforce. The Best-in-State Employers
designation reinforces Sands' reputation as a high-quality
employer, dedicated to our People, the Communities we call home and
the Planet we all share.
