The Office for Personal Data Protection said that there is no evidence that shows the six local gaming enterprises share an ‘employment blacklist’ among themselves following an investigation into two such complaints, according to the Office’s 2013 annual report released yesterday. All six companies deny the existence of a blacklist. The office said most of the gaming enterprises have their own human resources system to manage all the information about current staff, former staff and job applicants. One of the two complainants said that they had been informed that they would not be recruited as they had been blacklisted. The complainant had allegedly damaged a slot machine in another enterprise before and that person’s ID number was recorded, according to the Personal Data Protection Office. The other complainant had been informed that they did not pass the background check, having previously worked for another gaming operator.
