But considering that casino owners are rich and they can very well afford to provide at least the monthly wage of their workers to at least survive this pandemic. These owners don't have to do charity work outside, just providing the basic salary of their workers would be more than enough. Ok they have losses, but before this pandemic happens, they are earning millions of dollars per day and how much is the salary of their workers? I really hope they will consider the welfare of their employees. Once this is over, those workers might think twice if they want to go back to their old jobs.

Do you mean these rich owners should support their employers a lifetime or while shutdown? What if the lockdown lasted for about a year? They aren't obliged to do it since in the first place all are affected. Being them as rich doesn't play a role here. It's nice though if they will do that.

As long as the company supports them during the early weeks, that's fine. The salary and additional bonus should be well enough to cover at least a month. But if no support made then that's the time they can shout to the company and even sue them.

The government itself must play a role here to provide assistance to all, not the owners themselves. And I know these companies and sectors are also contributing to donations.

Not a lifetime of course. At least maybe couple of months so as to keep them afloat for the moment while waiting for other's assistance like from the government. They should look into the real conditions of their employees. Not only in casinos but same with other businesses as well. They are also losing, but their employees are more vulnerable as they will have nowhere to turn to just to buy food on their table. I know someone here in my country, he has a resto business but what he did, whatever was left (stocks) in his resto, cooked it all and gave to all those that really needed it. And bought groceries for his employees during lockdown. I know this kind of person is rare, but considering that he is not really rich made me think that even in his own ways, he finds ways to help and that is if you really want to.

It's their responsibility to give them a salary even if the business is closed. They should be prepared in times like this, and for sure they have an emergency fund to provide their employees. It's only a simple sacrifice for the employees who have been working for them every day.

This crisis have hit hard not only those people working in the casinos but i think in every sector of the society. If we all rely on the government i think i will fail, employers should play a big role here in helping their employees to ease the load of the government. After all, those individuals that received help from their employers were also responsible for their success, just a small payback for them.
Its not mandatory but just to think on humanitarian act then as a casino owner you would surely do such thing.You know that these people are part of your success and it isnt really that bad to think of them or giving out some help in times of crisis but well this would vary or depend on what kind of person for those people who do own those casinos.Not all would have the same mindset and feelings into other people.
If they would help they would help if  not then they would just dont care on whats happening around as long they do have their own money for themselves.

Unpopular opinion here... I don't think the casinos should pay the employees during the shutdown.

Casinos pay employees to work, if they're not working why should they get paid? Casinos and most jobs don't care about the livelihoods of their employers, their main purpose is obviously to make money. They clearly won't be making money if they're not even open. Sure, they could continue paying their employees now and go bankrupt off the back of it. Or they could just not pay them and let the government step up to protect its tax payers.

An employer-employee relationship shouldn't mean you should suddenly start paying people to do nothing when shit hits the fan. If these people don't have their own savings then that's on them.
From the business ethics perspective, it is not acceptable to just getting rid of the loyal employees during the long lockdown. The unemployment rate climbed to the high levels since the 2008 worldwide financial crisis and everyone knows what kind of consequences will be actual in the near future. I don't know how big portion of the tax is fulfilled with the paid taxes of casinos but turnover of the casino has to be enough for giving bonuses as a part of salary to loyal employees.

Absolutely, not only the casinos workers deserve this type if assistance as the lockdown is generally affecting the entire world and not selecting some career than others. We all known what the take a home of the gambling house is and they can afford the assistance of helping  their workers. Although, many of these gambling platforms or companies are only after their own gains than to help their workers, if they grant or give their staff a helping hand, this will be the best for anyone in the community to read about. Hope they equally remember we the gamblers who ensure they never run out of their businesses  Tongue

This is wrong. The salary should just be compensated based on working days. Owners can make an advanced payment but not for every month. That's already a good move. But if ever the company didn't pay from the start, that's another story.

It's not a simple sacrifice. It's easy to say they are rich but that is just numbers. If they will sustain all worker's salaries while no business until everything back on track, that will be destruction and the end of Vegas business. If the business will end, no more employment needed, no jobs, no works once the situation back to normal. Imagine the number of workers that needed to be paid. Vegas has thousands of workers.

This kind of problem should be addressed to the government.

Not only on Casino, but the workers of other industries also do the same way. They ask for the salary although they don't work and stay at home. This is a complicated thing since we also cannot blame the owner of their companies with no work activities during the shutdown. Some companies have suffered big losses during the shutdown. This lead to the dismissal of employees. So, I am worried that it will happen as well in Casino workers.

Everyone has been affected by this shutdown. Its not only those "casino workers" that are being affected by the shutdown. Its your government that should take steps to protect its citizen. It is their responsibility to make sure their people are not suffering financially. Some government around the world are paying like 70% - 80% of the wages if you are eligible.
These are hard times going on and NO one was prepared for this. Instead of blaming or crying randomly, look for options that are open for you.

What do you expect when hunger is the trend of the day, hardly before you see family that lives hand to mouth eating three squad meal daily enriched with nutrients. It quite understand why these is becoming a normal occurrence as workers are asking their employees to pay them even though they're not rendering any service in this hard time. I'll just ask the employees to consider the hardship and do something about the situation before it becomes worse.

If I'm not mistaken, the Las Vegas entertainment haven was shut down on March 21,22 or around that day (someone can correct me on this).

Supposedly, workers should still have the salary to collect today or that was already distributed? I also don't know the whole story but are the workers literally got nothing from their employers since the outbreak happen?

At least somehow, the company should understand the situation. It's not that they will support those workers until the situation got back to normal but at least, they should arrange a fair compensation as support even it will just last a couple of weeks. People will now depend on their LGU's after that.

In Code We Trust
Sadly, most of the government aren't really support it just like the salary of frontliners we have. But they are still employees too. In our country, every employee was given their advance salary. As long as they are tax payers, they have their rights to request for financial assistance. As we should consider, no matter if you are rich or poor, we're all the same in times like this.

Most of those workers will be working there from different countries as welll so they may not get those packages offered by US government so they have nothing now.They must be having some kind of associations or not? to help them in such crisis and they should be also called as organized workers since its is legal to gamble there.

No work, no pay.

How teh fck the employer can pay if he doesn't make any money? They can't. The government should pay their salaries by printing money. There is no other way. It is not just casinos too. It is everywhere. My own business lost %50 of its income since last month. I am about to get fcked too.
All business owners does have the same problem and people shouldnt only look on how these people do make money and trying to tell them that
they are obligated to help their workers.Of course its no work no pay, you can help but doesnt mean that you will support them in the end.
This kind of problem is in indeed government related where they do help out their residents into their vicinity when it comes to relief goods
and other needs during this crisis.

There's no option since you will going to choose between life and death as this virus can affect everyone. All businesses which been affected of this lockdown needs financial support both from the employers and the government, this no work no pay system really hurting everyone but it's still best to choose your life and survive from this crisis than risk your own life trying to keep working.

From where I'm at, the government is kind enough to send some goods and some money on our way until the quarantine period is over. Best estimates for the curve to flatten on my country (the Philippines) is up until June, which is a good 3 months since the initial lockdown on March 16. Private sectors and companies, especially those top corporations are also kind enough to chip in whatever they can even though they are already operating at a loss. Technically everyone is in emergency mode, with little to no resources to work with however the government 'can' basically provide food for the next 3 months. Payments on power, water and other things are essentially suspended for the time being, so there's that. I myself am a volunteer on a hospital and have my main job stopped, so I live off of donations and some money I have saved for myself. I understand the sentiment of everyone regarding this crisis, but if help is truly being delivered, people should not have any reasons to still go out. I'm not speaking out of privilege or luck, as I myself have nothing to pay for rent within the next month but if people cooperate well with the government on the effort to prevent the virus from spreading, normalcy would be had in a month or two.

Omicron is another FUD
snip..
This is a problem that is overtaken by the average of all workers in various industries throughout the world..  no one really wants this "PANDEMIC" to happen but it has already happened.  all workers who are currently losing their jobs can only do to report to the government of their respective countries because I have heard that each country has allocated large funds to meet the needs of their citizens affected by COVID-19 as my country did..

Governments have bailout plans and other related economic packets for helping the threatened sectors of the economy. The latest global lockdown has affected the casino workers too and the situation becomes worse every day of the quarantine. Gamblers have alternative choices such as playing online games but the conditions are not fair for casino employees.
