Galaxy announces bonus issuance

Casino operator Galaxy Entertainment Group announced last week the awarding of a discretionary bonus to its eligible workers at senior manager level and below on Wednesday. According to the company’s announcement, the majority of the workers will receive a bonus equivalent to at least 110 per cent of their monthly salary. ‘This discretionary bonus is determined based on three factors in considering its usual criteria, including the market condition, the company’s past year business performance and the performance of the team members,’ the company wrote. The same announcement reads that the operator’s awarded shares to its employees under the “Special Share Award” scheme in 2014 will be vested at the end of the year. All other major gaming operators in the city, with the exception of Sands China Ltd, announced the issuance of bonuses to their workers earlier this month.
