Four of Macau’s six gaming operators announced yesterday in separate statements increased paid maternity and paternity leave for their employees.
SJM said that that it “puts employees first and is dedicated to enhancing the welfare benefits of its staff members,” adding paid maternity leave will be increased from 56 days to 70 days, while paid paternity leave will be increased from 3 days to 5 days.
The SJM statement pointed out that its measure results from “the report on the Consultative Survey on Maternity and Paternity Leave released by the Labour Affairs Bureau on May 7.”
