Companies can implement safety measures such as regular audits, strict access controls, and employee training on ethics and addiction awareness. These measures can help identify potential issues early and prevent misappropriation of company funds.

I think that being in business of gambling and exposing each time ? seems like normal for the employee to be lured and attracted to what they are seeing each day.
so for me? the employee has a second chance or should be given enough justice , giving 1 month of no payment is enough and charge those amount he spent for all his years in the company.

It is a serious matter that will be seriously taken by the company. I won't be surprised if that employee will go to the office and will be lured by the company just to get arrested.

That will be the kind of setup that will happen if the betting company finds out that there's one employee that has became a culprit to the misusage of their funds.
and that employee seems to deserve such because he fails the trust of the
whole company to bring profit instead of losses.
Do you think a betting company or casino will understand and not arrest an employee who has access to company funds and then misuses it for gambling? If this employee claims that he is battling from gambling addiction, will he be considered for a lighter punishment? If you own such a casino or betting platform, what will you do to such an employee, understanding that addiction to gambling can make people make decisions that are unexpected.
I believe that I have come across this kind of issue back years and yeah the
company just noticed that the funds was being misused in long years after(but this
is not about casino employee but a regular company employee) but same faith that
he was brought into justice.
and If I were be the owner of the casino? I will not give consent to that attitude
because he will serve as an example to other employee to never use our funds to
gamble.

Well I think that it can happen for other types of companies too. It must not only be just a gambling company.
We know it does happen for a big company with many funds. There is people who can steal from the company for his bad gambling habit.

it is not an exemption because they did not obey the rules and the law, and addiction is not a reason for us to make such mistakes so for me they must be put in Jail and suffer for their mistakes.

this is something like we should let the serial killer be free because they are addicted in killing people?and just say they are battling from killing ? Grin Grin

I would really understand an employee of a betting company or casino who does not have access to the company's funds because he has misused gambling. If this employee claims that I am struggling with a gambling addiction, he will be considered for a light sentence.  or the owner of the gambling platform then such employee should suffer some penalty irrespective of gambling cannot give unexpected decisions to people

no company is willing that their money will be used carelessly, even by their own employees. even though the employee said that he gambled the money for a reason, none of the reasons would justify his actions for using money that was not rightfully his. if i were the owner of the casino, i would immediately imprison him and not listen to any reason.

The act by the employee is an act of stealing and the law will have to take it course knowing fully that being a gambling addict is not an excuse to go against the company's working policy.

Assuming I have to let such worker go free without any consequential punishment it's as though I am abetting and endorsing his action by being emotional to an administrative case that am supposed to act impersonal about it and by doing so another employee could act in like manner and come up with another excuse of probably mentally illness this time. And that alone can cause the downfall of my company because every business needs money to keep running it's affairs and be in competition with their counterparts.

I do believe that punishing that employee is another way of making him understand the negative impact of gambling addiction on his person and if he is wise enough, after facing the punishment he will seek for support from professionals therapists on how to kill the addiction.

Yes that's right, there is no such thing that companies will tolerate their employees just because the employee is confirmed that they suffer from addiction, because after all rules are rules and mistakes are mistakes, so of course as you said that this is a pretty serious problem for companies and not just companies engaged in gambling because this is a problem that involves misuse of money which is very sensitive.

In the end, the company will still bring this problem to the law especially when the amount of funds misused is very large which can harm the casino itself, firing the person and then imprisoning him is the right decision because he has a very bad personality who dares to take and misuse company money. This incident will certainly be a valuable lesson for a casino where with this happening, they will definitely be more careful in choosing and hiring people, especially in the financial department.

He will not be considered for any reason, if he has the enfontry to use his boss money to gamble, he will not be set free because he already knew the purnisent or law governing iligal activities, so doing it is like Dearing to see the out come which may never end well. Though the response of such situation will be determined by the boss of its an agresive boss, the person in question will really face the penalty by going to jail but if it's a good boss slow such person to work for some period of month without paying him salary. And that will be done on agreement between both parties.

I think it is obvious to think that the management won't allow a normal employee to have access in the platform's fund and most of the time, the 'heads' are the only ones who has full control of it and that is for the same reason which is to avoid such tendency that could obviously cause a huge problem for the site's fund. They won't want such risk to take place given how complicated running a gambling site is. They'd for sure be able to track the transaction assuming that it would be a big one given that it is the house's fund, and that should be an enough warning to this employee.

If I am a gambling operator, I will ensure that as part of the recruitment process, that applicants state whether they are suffering from gambling addiction or not. And I will have them undergo a gambling addiction test. It is not meant to discriminate against anyone but to protect my business. Anyone whose results shows that they are high in gambling addiction, they will be screened out and not be selected. That way it saves me loss of money in the Long term when they eventually get employed.
Sometimes it is no longer gambling addiction but overall thinking of an individual. A gambling addict would be an employee to a gambling site? Sounds unrealistic I guess. If they're addicted to gambling, they won't have time to be in a site since they will be tempted to just spend their time playing due to compulsion.


However, addiction is complex, and it's not just about the time spent; it's about the compulsive behavior and relationship with gambling. An individual who is addicted could very well work in a gambling environment—it might even fuel their addiction, having such close proximity to the source of their compulsion. This doesn't necessarily mean they'll be playing all the time; addiction can manifest in different ways. Some might find themselves constantly thinking about the next gamble, while others might engage in risky betting behavior outside of work hours. It's a risky situation, and it requires a lot of self-control and professional boundaries, which can be incredibly challenging for someone struggling with addiction.

I just remember a case that happened in my old street where a cashier working in a physical betting shop used up most of the company's money to play bets in that shop.

There are many similar cases of using company funds for gambling or even for other things.
This is indeed the wrong path and will not be justified because it uses money that is supposed to be for the company but is used personally for gambling.

People who are usually involved in cases of misuse of money like this are people who do not have a good way of thinking, they just want more funds to start gambling.

If we can relate a case like this, maybe we can see how the case of former FTX CEO, SBF, who misappropriated company money or FTX members' money for his personal needs. This is a serious indictment because it will lead to embezzlement.

Most companies have very strict rules, they are always aware of any mistake that an employee might make so they can punish that employee and as a result they don't pay him a salary and fire him because that way they can hire another employee who will receive a very high salary. low, this very ugly and bad scheme has been done by companies since many years. In the event that an employee robbed the casino, I believe that the casino owners would fire the employee and complain to the police and that employee would be arrested and paid for all the money he stole from the casino, unfortunately the casino owners would have no mercy

If this employee claims that he is battling from gambling addiction, will he be considered for a lighter punishment?

no, the casino owners would not consider that, they would complain to the police and the judge and they could analyze whether he was a person addicted to gambling or not and based on that the judge will determine the sentence he will impose, the The judge can sentence him to undergo treatment for addiction in isolation and then pay the money he used from the company to gamble and if he is cured then the judge could let him live in freedom. These are cases in which only the judge will decide

If you own such a casino or betting platform, what will you do to such an employee, understanding that addiction to gambling can make people make decisions that are unexpected.

If I were the owner of a casino and were faced with a situation like this, I would just force the employee to undergo treatment to cure his addiction, I wouldn't report him to the police, I wouldn't charge him for the money he lost, I I would just fire him and tell him to go get treatment to cure his addiction

All these matters are basically internal matters of the company and how an employee will be treated by a company and how much positive or negative assessment will be made on him is only the company's prerogative. If an employee takes access from a company fund or steals money and spends it in an unethical way, then that employee must face disciplinary action. If a company forgives the employee or gives him a second chance, it will be a significant step for the company. However, if a gambling or casino company does such an unethical act, the company can punish the employee and conduct a financial audit. Any employee who commits such unethical acts in my casino or gambling establishment must be punished.

I doubt anyone would even consider this without first given him the beating or drilling of that he deserves. Collecting something that doesn't belong to you is called stealing and there is no excuse to justify what he did and moreover it's a business ground and whatever is done their should be strictly related to business.
I agree, he has stolen money from the company.

There is no excuse for that and he can't reason out that he's a gambler so it's okay to use the company's money for his own purpose, it's not like that.

Corporations have their way of keeping their funds and audits them typically as a compliance for tax purposes and as well as to keep some records updated.

If you know you are gambling addict then why would even volunteer to go get a job at a casino firm.
If it's a real thing, lucky that the person passed and got the job.

An addicted gambler can definitely be profitable for that gambling company. But addicted employees are never good for any company. If you are a company owner, what kind of employees would you like to have in your company? Of course we will try to ensure that every employee is not addicted to anything. Because it is never possible to get the expected service from an addicted employee. The employee may not be able to use the company's money, he may gamble with his own money. But still the loss of that company. Because the addicted gambler can never concentrate fully on his task. And if there are any employees who have company funds who behave in such unprofessional manner then those employees should be removed from the company immediately. Otherwise the company may face huge losses at any time. The company may even collapse.

There is no amount of excuse that's enough to justify the misuse of companies funds. No matter what the issue is supposed to be, using company funds shouldn't be tolerated at all, the person should be arrested, and all funds used should be paid back to the company, and such a person should not even be retained.
 
I just remember a case that happened in my old street where a cashier working in a physical betting shop used up most of the company's money to play bets in that shop.

At first, he started with a small amount, which his salary was able to cover until he got to a point where he got involved, and the guy got arrested by the owner of the shop.

I really doubt that this incident will be forgiven since trust is everything on casino industry especially if it’s involved money. If I’m a casino owner, I will not tolerate this behavior because my company life is based on the funds for gambling so if I have an employee that can’t handle his addiction then he is already considered as incompetent to the job description he is taking part.

Immediate termination is always the right choice here because trust is already broken while there’s a lot of chance that this will occur again in the future because it’s an addiction problem and not a simple mistake at work that related human error. Allowing employees that mix their personal problem to work especially if the problem is related to his work is already a big red flag.
Dishonesty is a big threat to all companies. Whether it’s a betting company or not, the fact that your employee breaks the rule and misuse the company’s funds, that employee deserves to be fired immediately. Otherwise, it’s like you are tolerating his behavior because he’s a gambling addict and would definitely do it again thinking that he’ll be forgiven again.

Gambling addiction is like a disease that it’s hard to be cured if the person itself does not allow it to be cured. So if one adopts gambling addiction in any company, that would be a threat for the welfare of the company, most particularly if the company caters majority on funds.

Everything would really be depending into the casino owner or business owner whether he/she would really be having that kind of pity towards the employee and having some considerations or not.

In my case if this one happens then it would be something that not tolerable. He/she would really be needing to suffer the consequences, im not really that kind of person who doesnt have considerations but such act would have put up the business that you do have in trouble. What if the funds on that moment had lost all? Where you would really be getting those funds back?
For sure it would really be giving out that kind of impact on which you might be suffering that extreme loses in that case.

If someone of your employee broke out that trust then it would be better on laying it off while its still early because if you do still accept that then you are just basically
putting up yourself into such possibly another trouble.
