SaskGaming’s properties, Casinos Regina and Moose Jaw, have once again been reaccredited through the Responsible Gambling Council’s (RGC) Responsible Gambling (RG) Check program.This is the second time Casinos Regina and Moose Jaw have achieved reaccreditation, which is valid for a period of three years. Both properties obtained initial accreditation in 2013 and reaccreditation in 2016.
“Another successful RG Check reaccreditation demonstrates SaskGaming’s dedication to responsible gambling and social responsibility,” Minister Responsible for SaskGaming Christine Tell said. “Each year, the corporation works diligently to implement best practices and build upon its already robust responsible gambling program. This is a testament to that important work.”
RG Check recognizes casino venues that have rigorous standards in responsible gambling. As part of the reaccreditation process, casino venues are evaluated using eight standards and 47 criteria – which makes the reaccreditation process both rigorous and comprehensive.
To obtain reaccreditation, both properties participated in a number of processes conducted by RGC analysts, including documentation reviews, guest and staff surveys, site visits and mock self-exclusion demonstrations, among many others.
“Guests of Casinos Regina and Moose Jaw can play with confidence knowing our commitment to responsible gambling is unwavering and validated through RG Check,” SaskGaming President and CEO Susan Flett said. “We are thrilled to be recognized as an industry leader through this important accreditation program.”
RGC is an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to problem gambling prevention. The RG Check program was first launched in 2011.
