Rank Group Enters into a New Partnership with GamCare
The Rank Group has announced a new partnership with GamCare for the extensive roll-out of safer gambling and social responsibility training for over 1400 colleagues. The programme will see GamCare deliver 150 days of training to Rank colleagues, kicking off later this month and running through until November.
The new partnership builds on Rank’s longstanding work with GamCare, which has seen colleagues working in the Customer Service, digital and land-based Mecca bingo business units receive training for the past 18 months.
The GamCare Social Responsibility and Interaction intermediate level course will be delivered as a one-day course to 950 people across Rank’s various business functions, including those working in land-based Grosvenor casinos, Mecca bingo clubs, the Rank Interactive (digital) team and international colleagues.
A further 500 colleagues will benefit from the advanced level course, delivered as part of a two-day programme, which seeks to significantly deepen the knowledge, skills and capability of colleagues at supervisor and managerial level, building on their existing safer gambling experiences and know-how.
John O’Reilly, CEO of Rank Group, said: “I am delighted that our partnership with GamCare is now being rolled out at such a significant scale. It underlines our relentless commitment to improving how we interact with customers to give them the safest and best experience when they are with us.
“Safer gambling is a strategic pillar of the Rank Group and it requires investment, expertise and a deepening of all our knowledge.
“The GamCare team are brilliant at focusing minds on how to optimise safer gambling and social responsibility interactions and I am certain that our colleagues will benefit enormously from their expertise which will, in turn, give a much improved service to our customers.”
Anna Hemmings, CEO of GamCare, said: “We are pleased to be extending our partnership with Rank to deliver safer gambling training across all their brands.
“The investment in their people’s skills and knowledge around customer interaction responsibility should help to reduce the risk of gambling harm in their venues and online.
“Our training incorporates the experience of our service users, the huge level of collected evidence and industry research across numerous fields and GamCare’s many years of experience working across the sector.”
