SIGA Casinos offer exciting entertainment - and gaming is part of what we do.
Like any form of entertainment, gambling is best enjoyed when adults
"Play Responsibly."
As a responsible corporate citizen, SIGA has made a commitment to our
customers, employees, stakeholders and suppliers to advocate the
responsible use of its gaming products and to minimize the potential for
harm. Our proactive approach to responsible gaming includes:
- Staff awareness and training on problem gambling.
- Promoting available services
- Providing information and resources so customers can make
informed gaming decisions.
- Information kiosks at the casinos
- Self exclusion programs
$2.25 million of SIGA's profits is allocated annually to the First Nations Addictions Rehabilitation Centre (FNARF) to ensure that effective and accessible prevention and treatment programs are available to people
suffering from gaming addictions.
