Average earnings for full-time employees in Macau’s gaming sector increased by 4.2 percent year-on-year to MOP28,020 ($3,480) in December 2025, as wages in the city’s largest industry continued to rise, according to official data released by the Statistics and Census Service (DSEC).

The figures were published in the government’s latest Survey on Manpower Needs and Wages in the Gaming Sector, which also showed a modest increase in employment. The number of full-time employees rose by 104 year-on-year to 53,075 by the end of the fourth quarter of 2025, with women accounting for 58.3 percent of the workforce.

The data indicated varying wage levels across different job categories. Directors and managers remained the highest-paid group, with average monthly earnings reaching MOP71,660 ($8,900), a 4 percent increase compared with the same period in 2024. Technicians and associate professionals recorded average earnings of MOP29,650 ($3,680), up 3.4 percent year-on-year.

Clerical staff, who make up the largest share of the gaming workforce, reported average earnings of MOP24,760 ($3,070), marking a modest 1.2 percent increase from a year earlier. Within this category, casino dealers – the largest single occupational group in the sector, numbering 23,755 employees – increased by 137 year-on-year. Their average earnings rose by 2.2 percent to MOP21,950 ($2,720). By law, only Macau residents can be croupiers.

Service and sales workers recorded the strongest wage growth among major occupations. Their average earnings increased by 15.2 percent year-on-year to MOP25,110 ($3,110), according to the survey.

The report also indicated relatively stable labor market conditions in the gaming sector. The employee turnover rate declined to 1.4 percent, while the job vacancy rate fell to 0.4 percent, both down 0.1 percentage point from the previous year.

Shift work remains prevalent in the industry, with 94.8 percent of gaming sector employees working rotating shifts, reflecting the round-the-clock nature of casino operations in Macau.

The gaming sector continues to be Macau’s largest employer and a key pillar of the city’s economy, supporting tens of thousands of jobs across casino operations, administration, and hospitality-related roles.
