Venetian employees complain about meal breaks

A total of 773 Venetian Macao employees have complained to the Labour Affairs Bureau regarding meal breaks and overtime pay. According to the bureau, the complaints are currently under review. According to the Labour Affairs Bureau head, Shuen Ka Hung, the main issue is whether the one-hour mealtime should be paid, and if yes, if it should be regarded as overtime. Recently, Venetian Macao launched a new policy that gives workers a 30-minute daily paid meal break, but the employees say they should be entitled to compensation for all the unpaid mealtime since the complex opened. Macau Business unsuccessfully tried to contact Venetian Macao for a comment.
