IAG SEP 2021年9月 亞博匯 24 COVER STORY The six concessionaires – Galaxy Entertainment Group , Melco Resorts , MGM China , Sands China , SJM Resorts and Wynn Macau – represent the largest private-sector employers in Macau, with more than 100,000 employees between them– equal to 15% of the population – including over 25,000 at Sands China alone. Whether by design or default, this means they hold enormous responsibility as both leaders of the business community and, to a certain extent, after the Macau government itself, guardians of the people. Whilenot theonly companies inMacaucommitted to CSR initiatives, the six concessionaires are often the first outlets the government turns to in times of crisis. In this vein, they have played a key role in Macau’s fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. This has included the donation of more than 4 million 業主，他們一共僱用了逾10萬名員工，這個數字相當於澳門總 人口數的15%，其中僅金沙中國就僱用了逾25000名員工。無論 是否有意，這意味著他們同時肩負著巨大的責任，不僅僅是商 界領袖，還在某種程度上是僅次於澳門政府的市民守護者。 儘管不是澳門的唯一一批致力履行企業社會責任的公司， 但六大博企往往是政府在緊急時刻率先求助的對象。也因此， 他們在澳門抗擊新冠疫情的過程中發揮了巨大的作用，包括捐 贈總計超過400萬個口罩、為返澳的遊客及旅客提供酒店用作 隔離醫學觀察、以及近期與政府合作提高疫苗接種率。通過為 員工及其親友家人舉辦疫苗接種講座及開展疫苗外展接種活 動，他們已經幫助澳門的疫苗接種率從今年5月的8%提升至8 月中旬的43%。 然而，澳門的企業社會責任遠不止於表象。近年來，澳門政 府越發重視企業社會責任舉措，尤為看中博企對澳門社區、內 地及全社會所須履行的責任。一個共識是，包含博彩業務的綜 合度假村，只有獲得與特許博彩業專營權相得益彰的「社會牌 照」、即與所在社區建立共生關係時才會穩定。 Macau’s concessionaires have played a key role in boosting Macau’s vaccination rate. 澳門的博企在推動提高澳門疫苗接種率方面發揮了重要作用。
