Casino companies' responsibilities to rehabilitation institutions

[bittraffic]

....
I have never seen a gambler addicted in a special place for recovery, i don't even think that exists.

you never see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist right? in my neighborhood there is a rehabilitation center and there are 3 patients who are addicted to gambling and they are quite aggressive in asking to gamble.

Why don't they let the 3 addicts gamble for a while and just bet on their meals? Kind of harsh I know.
But I think this should make them responsible in the end, imagine not eating a meal because they lose. The consequences of their actions make them suffer, which should open their eyes to why they should start realizing what gambling did to them.

my question is, do casinos need to be charged to carry out csr to rehabilitation centers so that these rehabilitation centers can provide discounts for cases related to gambling addiction?

from what I remember there are countries that require casinos to do CSR(corporate social responsibility) but they are not forcibly required to do it towards rehabilitation centers. As far as I know, the casinos themselves pick what kind of CSR they'll do.

and what about online casinos, how should they carry out csr since they operate globally?

It should not be much different from how brick-and-mortar casinos do their CSR.

I haven't read that such a thing exists, but if there are casinos that do this, then it is good, and gamblers will welcome this. but for me, it's the sole responsibility of the gambler to control himself and play responsibly and not to put the burden on the casino.
Casino clearly stated that they are an entertainment platform, and they have instructed gamblers about gambling addiction. Gamblers should show concern about his behavior if he is playing the right way or going out of line.

I don’t think casinos are still responsible for these gambling rehabilitation centers since gambling itself is never a do or die, so if one decides to gamble, that’s because he made it by choice and he knows the risks in gambling and is responsible enough to manage his own shortcomings with gambling. Otherwise, if every gambling addict will be solely responsible by these casinos, then expect that majority will have no worries anymore falling in gambling addiction since everything will be held responsible by their respective gambling casinos.

Just as tobacco factories are not charged to carry out CRS to rehabilitation centers or to hospitals for lung cancer patients as they are responsible for the product and not the addiction, so it is with casinos. I'm my estimation, they are under no obligation to carry out any gambling related crs projects. They could even decide that their CRS project would be on planting flowers. The rule is abide by the regulations of the regulating bodies and for what I know, rehabilitation centers or any other CRS projects are not cast in stone.

Gambling is for entertainment purposes that’s ehy the addiction part is depends on how user handle his own game.

Unlike companies that selling harmful products that cause addiction which surely results to addiction that’s why companies that involved on this industry know the effect and accept the minimal cost for csr in exchange for continuously selling their product to the market without any legal problem.

I doubt casino will do the same but it’s good if they will have since gambling addiction is already increasing due to online casino.

Each company is not affiliated with other companies or entities to cover the costs arising from its products, such as the impact of gambling addiction and also tobacco companies which, as you explained above, do not cover the costs of treating cancer, heart attacks and other diseases. This is also the same as the impact of gambling which causes stress, depression and other psychological impacts, the casino will not cover the recovery costs for rehabilitation.

So each individual bears the full costs whatever the impact of wrong behavior on the psychological impact on himself due to gambling addiction, please gamble wisely and responsibly so that you do not experience problems with gambling.

corporate social responsibility (csr) is an activity carried out by companies on the social and environmental impacts caused by their company's operations, and in this case, casinos have the potential that their operations can cause many cases of addiction in society. there have been many cases of addiction caused by gambling and usually the families of these victims bear the costs of rehabilitating these addicts themselves. usually the family will pay for the various needs of these addicts, such as food, hospitalization, etc., and that is not a little because there are addicts who need months to recover.

my question is, do casinos need to be charged to carry out csr to rehabilitation centers so that these rehabilitation centers can provide discounts for cases related to gambling addiction? and what about online casinos, how should they carry out csr since they operate globally?

I believe no, because the government could tax the casinos and build the rehabilitation themselves. Although I could see good arguments coming from both sides of the debate. But for those debating that "yes", casinos should be charged - outside of taxes, then would you also agree that the fast food industry should also be charged for the disease and the sickness that comes from eating fast food?

I don't see a way such regulations could be enforced in the scope of online gambling, to be honest. It could be done to brick-and-mortar casinos in developed countries like the United States or within the European Union, but in my opinion, in those countries casinos already pay taxes and money collected from taxes are indirectly used to take care of the need of population in general.
Perhaps the solution is not directly to get an extra tax on casinos and betting establishments but rather change the politicians in our countries, for those who are aware of the problem of addictions to both gambling, alcohol and illegal drugs, so they can use the money already collected through taxation to fund programs which will have a positive impact in the recovering of gamblers.
One is not supposed to underestimate de taxation system of the United States and how much they get from both the average people and the owner of casinos.

Casinos? Like all the casinos? Because some random new casino is hardly a reason why some other person that uses 10 other casinos is addicted. Are those casinos supposed to pay so that people in somewhere in the world get the discounts? Casinos that pay taxes are already participating to all sorts of programs that are funded via taxes.

We could ask if beer manufacturers be changed for recovery of alcoholics, and netflix charged for people getting addicted to binge watching and getting nothing done. There often already are taxes for products that might be harmful for some people, so i think that's enough. I might be wrong and some casinos might actually help their customers, but i haven't heard about something like that. And it's not like one casino can be directly responsible of someone being an addict. That's both impossible to prove and confusing when it comes to different regions dealing with addiction in different ways.

If casinos were taxed fairly then the state would have enough money to take care of any addicted persons that needs help.

The big issue with taxation is that it is inherently unfair. Your tax rate as a working man would be 70% or something if you have the same income as a casino and it's taxed regardless of expenses. Casinos have business tax rates at 25% or lower even and generally can also count in expenses to reduce taxation. But it's not just casinos, it's the whole system. Things could change for the better if only we had some honest politicians. But that's not very realistic to think about in most countries. They're just crooks ready to serve the system but not the people.

Any person can get addicted to any person, any medicine, any drug, any activity, any habit, any everything. Is it the duty of wine, beer, whisky and other alcoholic drink manufacturers to take care of alcoholics? Should they fund alcohol rehabilitation programs? It's the nature of humans to blame others instead of their own self for every bad that happens to them but I think that it's not duty of casinos to fund rehabilitation centers for gambling addicts. If any casino does that and funds such centers, it's simply the expression of kindness.
The only duty that I think casinos should carry is to offer informational resources about possible gambling addiction that can occur with any person.

The reality is, in most countries, the gambling companies do not have any such responsibility and nor should it necessarily be in their hands. If a government is regulating the industry wisely, then they should be taxing this kind of company quite punitively and that would help to offset the negative aspects that they might spill into society. As part of that they could be forced to make a mandatory contribution of a percentage in profits to a completely independent industry body that can support players with a problem. They should definitely be forced to have an effective opt out system too, allowing you to self exclude up to 5 years. The trouble is there are just so many other options online that exist in different regulatory frameworks.

Are all these what is constituted on the terms and conditions before establishing a casino gambling platform in any country, if by law the government enact the use of this conduct then they will have no option than to see it as a personal responsible to be in charge of CSR, and as for those we often see that go into this acts, they are well renown organizations and companies who have the affordability of taking care of that aspect and there is department assigned to mange and monitor such section within their management team.

Obviously, this should be voluntarily done by a gambling provider. In the first place, no gambling site or industry forced gamblers to play so there's no need to blame others for your mistake in particular with those related to addiction. Gambling too much is a choice; either you are just greedy of profit or you have strong desire to get rich quickly. It is our sole responsibility as gamblers to control yourself and to manage your . But I'm glad that there are gambling communities which are open on helping fellow people. Heard of those who are conducting  missions and feeding programs to under privileged communities as a form of giving back. However, a gambling provider paying a gambler's rehabilitation fees would be too much in my opinion. This is not something like insurance that a company complies for their employee. I would more consider this if the gambling site is the one to make an offer or help to a gambler.

centers can provide discounts for cases related to gambling addiction?
Yes, it could be a good thing on speaking about lesser expense to those who are really that addicted.

what about online casinos, how should they carry out csr since they operate globally?
Possible, but it would really be hard to integrate considering that online operations isnt something that
could really be easily be traced it up if you do tend to make up some verification.

As for rehab then it would really be that exaggerated about providing almost everything as if you were on a hospitalization.
Providing some rehabs then it would be an another expenses and this is something that they dont really like,.

I haven't read that such a thing exists, but if there are casinos that do this, then it is good, and gamblers will welcome this. but for me, it's the sole responsibility of the gambler to control himself and play responsibly and not to put the burden on the casino.

According to my researches on this, gambling sites are not ready to fund any rehabilitation organization. Gamblers have the whole thing to do by themselves. Addiction starts from greediness and the ability of someone to be thinking that he can earn money from gambling. But in the process of such thinking, the person will be greedy and gamble to make money but losing instead. If anyone is not satisfied, the person can go for the government to impose more tax on the gambling site so that the government can fund such a thing. Or the person can go for the government to make the gambling sites to fund such a thing.

The potential for casinos to foster addiction in society is enormous. Considering the large number of addiction cases and the large rehabilitation costs borne by the victims' families, it is natural for casinos to impose corporate social responsibility (CSR) on these rehabilitation centers. Such a move allows these institutions to offer discounted or even free treatment to those battling cases of gambling addiction. In many cases, they do not have the time or money to seek help but are still impacted by these socio-economic problems, which can only be addressed through CSR efforts from other sectors. Online casinos, being global in nature, must also integrate CSR effectively. They might consider funding international rehabilitation programs, and providing assistance to addicts in various countries. Additionally, online casinos can offer information and easy access to addiction support services on their platforms and pledge a small portion of their revenues to mental health treatment and rehabilitation efforts. For online casinos: they have to operate globally, so they also have to adopt CSR properly.

For me I know that casinos are out to make money, they don't really care about what happens to their customers as a result of patronizing them, If casinos can be charged on the effect of their service to their customers I think it will be better but before this, it should be included in the law governing the individual country so that nailing such casino wouldn't be difficult, if not the gambling company can come up with good lawyers that can turn the case against the victims but realistically this should be done to protect gamblers of the adverse effect of gambling itself, families and relatives of addicted gamblers are not suppose to face this problem of rehabilitation alone, the casino companies are suppose to contribute their quota in other to share responsibilities with the victims family, that's my take on this.

If gambling can be this complicated, then I think there should be a ban to gambling. In my opinion, this is not really necessary because addiction can comes from anywhere and are rehabilitation provided for them. Have you seen a person who loves to be drunk all the time rehabilitated before, have you seen who is addicted to womanizing rehabilitated before? The answer is no because things are adult decisions and it's their responsibility.

If you a person is addicted to gambling and never yield any positive impact on such person, they should just quit and never try anything gambling again. I have not seen a person that quits gambling dies before neither do they fall sick, it's about been responsible and stop acting like someone who doesn't have a life and the addicted gambler will be fine.

The gambling industry is already taxed at very high levels by the governments in order to use part of those funds to help the people that could be addicted to gambling, so I do not see why casinos must pay for rehabilitation centers when they are already doing so.

So if for some reason there are not enough of those centers around your community, then the government is to blame, as it is clear politicians are not using that money for its stated purpose.
