LAS VEGAS, Feb. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Las Vegas Sands
(NYSE: LVS) has again been named one of the "World's Most Admired
Companies" in Fortune's annual list of the most respected
and reputable businesses. Sands' 2022 appearance on the list is its
sixth straight and ninth in the past decade.
"Our continued inclusion on this prestigious reputational
benchmark speaks to the economic value, social benefit,
environmental leadership and business acumen we bring to our
communities and the hospitality industry as a whole," said
Patrick Dumont, president and chief
operating officer. "We are committed to delivering impact through
corporate citizenship practices and programs that ensure
sustainable business performance and help advance our Team Members,
local business partners and host communities."
Sands is the largest global developer and operator of
world-class Integrated Resorts. Combining state-of-the-art meeting
and convention facilities with luxury hotel rooms and suites,
gaming, expansive retail offerings and an array of entertainment
offerings, Sands' iconic Integrated Resorts are premier
attractions, drawing hundreds of thousands business and leisure
visitors to its regions annually.
The company's global corporate responsibility commitment is
built on the pillars of People, Communities and Planet, which
drives its focus on being the employer and partner of choice in its
regions; helping maintain its communities' strength as valuable
places to live, work and visit; and diligently working to protect
ecological health by reducing impact on the environment. The
company annually reports its goals, progress and accomplishments in
these three areas, along with its practices around ethics and
governance, in the Sands Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
Report.
Sands' designation on the Fortune "World's Most Admired
Companies" list follows the company's recent recognition on the
Newsweek 2022 America's Most Responsible Companies list as
well as the Dow Jones Sustainability World and North America
Indices (DJSI). Sands was the only U.S.-based hospitality and
gaming company recognized by both DJSI World and North America in 2021.
To determine the list, Fortune collaborated with partner
Korn Ferry on a survey of corporate
reputation that began with a universe of approximately 1,500
candidates: the 1,000 largest U.S. companies ranked by revenue,
along with non-U.S. companies in Fortune's Global 500
database that have revenues of $10
billion or more. The assortment was winnowed to the
highest-revenue companies in each industry, a total of 640 in 28
countries. The top-rated companies were picked from that pool of
640; the executives who voted work at the companies in that
group.
To determine the best-regarded companies in 52 industries,
Korn Ferry asked executives,
directors and analysts to rate enterprises in their own industry on
nine criteria, from investment value and quality of management and
products to social responsibility and ability to attract talent.
Companies included on the World's Most Admired list received scores
ranking in the top half of their industry surveys. For complete
