Controlling expenses is pivotal for tribal casinos since more than half of operat i n g c o s t s a r e s p e n t o n p a y r o l l a n d e m p l o y e e b e n e f i t s G a m i n g e n t i t i e s can’t afford to ignore inflated insurance premium costs Some providers hike premiums annually, or automatically i n c r e a s e t h e v a l u e s o f t h e p r o p e r t y b e i n g i n s u r e d o v e r t i m e e v e n f o r e q u i p m e n t t h a t ’ s n o l o n g e r o p e r a tional Know exactly what you’re paying for and speak up if you’re being over charged
M a n y n o n t r i b a l l y o w n e d i n s u r a n c e providers offer high blanket limits that m a y s e e m a p p e a l i n g i n i t i a l l y , u n t i l tribes read the fine print. Blanket limits, such as $1 billion worth of coverage, are generally subject to various terms and high deductibles Exclusions in insur ance coverage can also prove detrimen tal to tribal governments and business es that believe they’re covered for a catastrophe
Casinos often have employees injured on the job Your insurer should provide safety training and on site inspections of property and equipment at no addi tional cost Workplace safety education is vital; your insurer should help instill a workforce culture that values holistic safety
Benefits can enhance employees’ job satisfaction and may come into play if an employee is weighing the advan t a g e s o f s e e k i n g w o r k e l s e w h e r e . C o m p r e h e n s i v e a n d c o s t e f f e c t i v e e m p l o y e e b e n e f i t s s o l u t i o n s s h o u l d include health, dental, vision, accident, short and long term disability, critical illness and more Your preferred insur ance provider should offer a stream lined enrollment system well as contin uous representative involvement
S e l e c t a c o m p e t i t i v e t r i b a l w o r k e r s compensation (TWC) program that pro vides medical, wage loss, permanent disability and death benefits that rivals state workers compensation without sacrificing the tribe’s ability to deter mine its level of coverage Tribal gam ing entities can avoid the fraud and abuse that’s prevalent in state systems through a sovereign TWC program
In the unfortunate event of an employ ee injury involving lost time from work, a n e f f e c t i v e r e t u r n t o w o r k p r o g r a m can aid in the rehabilitation and recov ery, creating a smoother process for both employer and employee
“This cost free program has some i n c r e d i b l e b e n e f i t s a n d w i l l p r o v i d e your employees with a substantial dis count on safe, comfortable and durable t r e n d r i g h t f o o t w e a r r e s u l t i n g i n improved worker safety, morale and overall efficiency,” says National Sales Manager Harold Surabian.
The SKECHERS Direct program is available to casinos and properties with 200 or more employees and who are based in the United States or Canada The program offers employees a year round 30 percent discount on SKECH ERS slip resistant work shoes and safety toe footwear All SKECHERS slip resis tant work shoes are tested to meet or exceed industry standards.
Included in the program is SKECH ERS $5,000 slip and fall warranty that helps protect your company from costly slip and falls In addition, employees will b e n e f i t f r o m S K E C H E R S q u a r t e r l y friends and family days events on shoes
Tribal gaming entities are not a one size fits all risk model Talk to a trusted broker about your tribal business’s key risks and then design an insurance pro gram around those risks Property, lia bility and workers compensation poli cies should be uniquely crafted to pro tect tribal assets, while considering cul tural preferences.

for the entire family, including kids’ shoes, walking shoes, running shoes and more (30 percent off on more than 3,000 styles)
You may also offer your employees a payroll deduction program for their shoe purchases, which would enable them to spread the cost of their shoes over multiple paychecks This part of the program is entirely optional for the employer and you need not offer a pay r o l l d e d u c t i o n p l a n t o e n a b l e y o u r employees to enjoy all of the other ben efits of the SKECHERS Direct Corporate Shoe Program

Over time, casinos can migrate all CMS functionality to Foundation and remove the legacy CMS without any disruption to their loyalty, reporting or analytics programs, resulting in millions of dollars saved annually in hardware and maintenance fees
