NOVOMATIC Places Emphasis Squarely on Employee Health and Safety
The NOVO Company Day in summer is an annual fixture for employees of the international gaming technology group. In this year’s Health and Safety Day, the company once again focused on the topics of health, nutrition, sports and exercise, as well as workplace safety, thereby sending a strong signal about the great importance of workplace health and safety at NOVOMATIC.
In a welcoming speech, the whole of the NOVOMATIC Executive Board emphasised the importance of having healthy employees to achieve business success: “NOVOMATIC’s success is inextricably linked to the health and satisfaction of our employees. This is why we believe looking after their well-being is a key pillar of our sustainable corporate development. The NOVO Company Day is one of the ways we would like to thank all employees for their commitment, as their daily dedication and willingness to perform play a significant role in NOVOMATIC’s success.”
In her speech, the local deputy mayor Dagmar Händler also emphasised the importance of the company for the region: “NOVOMATIC is of great importance to the market town of Gumpoldskirchen, as the company not only creates a wide range of skilled jobs, but also places a high value on the health and safety of its employees.”
In keeping with the Group-wide motto “Enjoy Working With Us”, fun and team spirit were also in plentiful supply at this year’s NOVO Company Day. In particular, the presentation by Austria’s leading mental health expert Manuel Horeth inspired the audience with exciting live experiments. The Health and Safety Day’s programme included informative health check-up stations as well as valuable safety training, such as how to use a fire extinguisher and a defibrillator correctly.
The fact that employees are highly motivated to participate in the day’s programme is proof of the valuable contribution that the company makes to safeguarding a culture of health and safety at work. It is with such initiatives that NOVOMATIC shows its recognition that the health and well-being of its employees play a central role in the company and these are actively promoted.

Evoplay has launched Season of Legends, a year-long network campaign built around four seasonal phases, starting with a spring edition carrying a €512,000 prize pool. The spring phase launched in March and runs across March, April and May.
The studio said the new format follows its previous Big Adventures network campaign and is designed to drive sustained engagement through a more structured seasonal approach. Each season runs for three months with new mechanics and prize pools.
A new mechanic, Infinity Prize Drops, will run daily throughout each month and is not tied to tournament windows. The spring edition also includes a Tournament and Wheel of Fortune, each operating in four monthly phases: 1st- 5th, 9th- 13th, 17th- 21st, and 25th- 29th.
Evoplay said the €512,000 spring prize pool will be distributed across the three-month period via a consolidated leaderboard spanning participating operators. Players earn points through qualifying spins on selected Evoplay titles including Hot Triple Sevens, Piggy Bank: 3 Pots Bonanza, and the Penalty Shoot-out series.
Diana Larina, Head of Marketing at Evoplay, said: “Season of Legends marks the next evolution of our network campaigns. With Big Adventures, we saw just how effective long-term engagement can be, and this new format takes that even further.
“By introducing seasonal structure and mechanics like Infinity Drops, we’re giving operators the tools to maintain consistent player activity, rather than relying on short-term spikes. This is just the beginning, and we’re excited to build momentum throughout the year.”
