Gambling industry professionals can play a vital role in the evolution of player safety by supporting the cutting edge of addiction science. While the industry can benefit from our important research, industry professionals are not involved in the research process itself, as The ICRG works independently of direct industry influence to ensure scientific integrity.
Industry professionals can help transform RG standards by:
- Funding the Research: Join the global network of companies funding critical breakthroughs. Contact us to learn how your organization can power the next generation of scientific discovery.
- Weaponizing Your Strategy with Data: Ensure your Responsible Gambling (RG) programs are backed by evidence, not guesswork. Bridge the gap between science and operations at the annual ICRG Conference on Gambling & Addiction (CG&A), held in conjunction with the Global Gaming Expo (G2E).
- Auditing Your Coverage: Take a proactive stand for your workforce. Verify that your company’s health insurance explicitly covers gambling disorder treatment.
- Breaking the Stigma: Fear of exposure often prevents employees from seeking help. Actively champion your Employee Assistance Program (EAP) by reinforcing its strict commitment to confidentiality, ensuring a safe path for those struggling with alcohol or gambling issues.
