Macau casino operator Sands China Ltd held during June the sixth edition of its ‘Happy 360 Month’, an annual initiative about health and well-being aimed at its staff.
The firm said more than 7,000 workers took part in activities staged across its Venetian Macao, Parisian Macao, Londoner Macao, and Sands Macao properties between June 2 and 26.
New this year was an artificial intelligence (AI) “health assessment experience” (pictured), the company stated in a recent press release.
Sands China said that over the years, through various activities such as roadshows, seminars, and interactive workshops, Happy 360 Month “has helped team members build positive thinking, enhance their sense of well-being, and promote a healthy work-life balance”.
Wilfred Wong Ying Wai, executive vice chairman of Sands China, was quoted saying: “Sands China is a large family with over 28,000 team members, and their healthy development is a key driving force for the company’s continuous progress.”
He added: “We encourage them to develop healthy lifestyles and foster a caring, supportive, and positive work environment, in alignment with the Macau government’s ‘Healthy Macao Blueprint’ and ‘Healthy Community’ policies.”
This year’s programme introduced an “AI Tongue Image Analyzer Station”, which Sands China said used AI image analysis technology to give “real-time, objective health reference data to raise team members’ awareness of their own physical condition, while also reinforcing the idea that prevention is better than cure when it comes to health management”.
Sands China also held three seminars and workshops covering “hearing care, emotional relief, and physical and mental relaxation, helping team members understand health management from multiple perspectives”, the firm said.
A closing ceremony for Happy 360 Month on June 24 was attended by a number of senior Macau government officials. They included: Chan Un Tong, director of the Labour Affairs Bureau; Wong Weng Man, head of the health promotion division of the city’s Health Bureau; and Wong Pak Kei, acting head of the community service coordination division of the Social Welfare Bureau.
