GKL brings workplace counseling to casino employees

Grand Korea Leisure (GKL), the operator of Korea's Seven Luck foreigner-only casinos, is making strides in workplace well-being by introducing professional counseling services to its casino employees. The initiative, named No-ri-teo, aims to create an open dialogue about labor and management issues.

The week-long program began on Monday, visiting GKL's Seoul headquarters, the Gangnam Coex branch, and the Seoul Dragon City branch before concluding at the Busan Lotte branch. This comprehensive rollout ensures that all employees, regardless of their shift, can access the support they need.

To cater to the needs of night staff members, counseling booths remain open from 11:00 a.m. until midnight, making it convenient for workers across all three duty shifts. The program's primary objective is to provide a confidential space for employees to address workplace grievances and receive essential support for the emotional labor often required in the hospitality industry.
