Proactive Responsible Gambling: A Business Imperative for all Gambling Venues
The Queensland Gambling Survey 2023 reveals a stark reality: while overall gambling participation may be declining, the prevalence of at-risk gambling groups remains a persistent issue. The survey found that 0.64% of Queensland adults are classified as problem gamblers, a significant number who experience serious negative consequences from their gambling. This data emphasises the importance of proactive measures that prioritise prevention and early intervention, rather than simply relying on self-exclusion programs.
