Health & Sanitation Program

We are closely monitoring government policy changes, Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines, government mandates, and public health advancements and will continue to make changes as necessary or appropriate to our protocols and procedures. Wynn Resorts have developed this program in consultation with three leading public health medical professionals.

HEALTH & SANITATION GUIDELINES

The safety and security of our guests and staff have always been a top priority of Jackpot Junction Casino Hotel. When the appropriate time allows to reopen the property. Health and Sanitation Guideline is a document outlining how we are going to handle the opening and continuous cleanliness of our property. This plan is very similar to the program created by Wynn Resorts and revised to fit our operations.

Therefore, we developed the following steps to include modified safety measures to the best of our ability to keep our guests, staff, and our community safe. Each operating department has its own customized set of procedures more detailed than the summary presented here. The onset of the COVID-19 crisis has forced us to be conscientious regarding the health and sanitization of our property. Not to mention the wellbeing of our guests and staff.

Our goal is to have strict safety measures that include: social distancing, masks, sanitizing of the facilities, and temperature scans at every entrance. We rely on the best available information and science regarding sanitization methods in consultation with professional infectious disease experts from the best academic institutions in the country. We will continue to refine, update, and implement plans as our experts provide us with further insight and guidance. Our procedures are extensive and might not apply to other tribal properties in our industry.

We hope that everyone regards Jackpot Junction Casino Hotel, a place that has gone the extra mile to ensure a healthy, safe and friendly environment.

Employee & Guest Health

The health and safety of our employees and guests is our number one priority.

Thermal Cameras. Points of entry will be limited to allow our security team to conduct non-invasive temperature checks utilizing thermal cameras or handheld units. Employees or guests confirmed to have a temperature over 100.0°F will not be allowed entry to the property and will be directed towards appropriate medical care.

Physical Distancing. Advise guests to practice physical distancing by standing at least six feet away from other groups of people, not traveling with them while standing in lines, using elevators, or moving around the property. Arrange restaurant tables, slot machines, and other physical layouts to ensure appropriate distancing. Employees will be reminded not to touch their faces and to practice physical distancing by standing at least six feet away from guests and other employees whenever possible.

Hand Sanitizer. Hand sanitizer dispensers, touchless whenever possible, will be placed at guest and employee entrances and contact areas such as hotel lobbies, the casino floor, restaurant entrances, and elevator landings.

Front of the House Signage. There will be health and hygiene reminders throughout the property, including the proper way to wear, handle, and dispose of masks.

Back of the House Signage. Signage will be posted throughout the property, reminding employees of the proper way to wear, handle and dispose of masks, use gloves (in positions deemed appropriate by medical experts), wash hands, sneeze, and to avoid touching their faces.

Employee & Guest Health Concerns. Our employees have been given clear instructions on how to respond swiftly and report all presumed cases of COVID-19. We will be ready to provide support to our guests. Employees are instructed to stay home if they do not feel well and are instructed to contact a manager if they notice a coworker or guest with a cough, shortness of breath, or other known symptoms of COVID-19. Employees and guests who are exhibiting any of the symptoms of COVID-19 while at the property are instructed to immediately notify their manager (employees) or hotel (guests).

Employee’s Responsibilities

Jackpot Junction Casino Hotel Employees are vital for an effective sanitation and health program.

Hand Washing. Correct hygiene and frequent handwashing with soap is vital to helping combat the spread of any virus. All Jackpot Junction Casino Hotel employees have been instructed to wash their hands, or use sanitizer when a sink is not available, every 60 minutes (for 20-seconds) and after any of the following activities: using the restroom, sneezing, touching the face, blowing the nose, cleaning, sweeping, mopping, smoking, eating, drinking, entering and leaving the gaming floor, going on break and before or after starting a shift.

COVID-19 Training. All employees will receive training on COVID-19 safety and sanitation protocols with more comprehensive training for our teams with frequent guest contact, including Housekeeping, Food & Beverage, Gaming, Hotel Operations, and Security.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Appropriate PPE will be worn by all employees based on their role and responsibilities and in adherence to state or local regulations and LSIC guidance. Training on how to properly use and dispose of all PPE will be mandatory. Every employee entering the resort will be provided a mask and required to wear that mask while on property. Gloves will be provided to employees whose responsibilities require them as determined by medical experts including housekeeping, gaming attendants and security officers in direct contact with guests.

Daily Pre-Shift & Timekeeping. Employee pre-shift meetings will be conducted as needed virtually or in areas that allow for appropriate physical distancing between employees. Meetings will then be looped into our Employee Information Center for continuous viewing. Larger departments will stagger employee arrival times to minimize traffic volume in the back of house corridors. Hand sanitizer will be available at each time clock location, and employees will be required to sanitize their hands after clocking in. Our management team will ensure constant communication and proper PPE and sanitation procedures are followed and updated per the latest expert guidance.
