Responsible Gaming and raising money for good causes in a responsible manner are part of the DNA of WLA members. The WLA Responsible Gaming Principles and Responsible Gaming Framework (RGF) were adopted in 2006 to do just this – protect the public and sustain revenues for public good. The seven Principles address areas of player protection, collaboration with other stakeholders, research, promotion, informed player choice, monitoring and reporting.
However, there is also concern for the potential social impact of lottery operations, which extend to other Corporate Social Responsibility elements. These include business ethics, corporate citizenship, labor relations (diversity, equity, inclusion), environmental engagement and their footprint with stakeholders.
