Cooperation between Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz and LZG continues for enhanced gambling safety measures
Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz, a leading gambling company, has extended its cooperation with the State Center for Health Promotion (LZG) in a bid to strengthen its commitment towards player protection. The LZG Academy gGmbH, a subsidiary of the LZG, offers a range of training courses related to gambling addiction prevention.
Jürgen Härner, Managing Director of Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz, emphasized their understanding to contribute to the protection of at-risk individuals and minors. Numerous employees of Lotto sales outlets have been sensitized to the issue of gambling addiction through training provided by the LZG Academy gGmbH.
The LZG Academy gGmbH offers initial, repeat, and comprehensive training courses on gambling addiction prevention. These courses cover symptoms, causes, and the progression of gambling addiction. Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz already takes various measures in its sales outlets to ensure compliance with youth protection and gambling addiction prevention.
Minors are not allowed to collect winnings at Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz sales outlets, and unannounced test purchases are conducted to check compliance with these regulations. In addition, the LZG Academy gGmbH provides special offers for casinos or gaming halls in Rhineland-Palatinate as part of its services.
It is not specified whether there will be further training offers on player protection in the future. For the most accurate and up-to-date details, it is recommended to check directly with LZG Academy gGmbH’s official website or contact them in Rhineland-Palatinate.
Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz takes its responsibility towards customers seriously, focusing on preventing problematic or pathological gambling behavior. The company celebrated its 75th anniversary at the beginning of the year, marking its long-standing commitment to responsible gambling practices. Furthermore, there is a ban on playing for the staff of Lotto Rheinland-Palatinate at their sales outlets.
The continuation of the cooperation between LZG and Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz has been decided for a long-term duration, underscoring their shared dedication to promoting a safe and responsible gambling environment. The LZG Academy gGmbH's website has subpages dedicated to topics such as addiction prevention, drugs at schools, and addiction issues in the workplace, further demonstrating its commitment to public health and wellbeing.
What could be the next step for Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz and LZG Academy gGmbH in terms of mental health awareness and prevention, especially concerning gambling addiction in the context of health-and-wellness and mental-health? As the cooperation between the two entities continues, one might expect the LZG Academy gGmbH to expand its training courses, potentially offering content that covers topics like stress management, resilience, and overall wellness within casino-and-gambling environments, aiming to promote a holistic approach to player protection and health promotion.
