Importance of Your Personal Conduct as a Gaming License Holder
The Commission is charged with ensuring the honesty and integrity of gaming activities on the Squaxin Island Reservation. The Commission expects that all gaming employees will maintain the highest standards of honesty and integrity both inside and out of the workplace. Failure of gaming employees to maintain these high standards or the conviction of a crime or other offense whether at work or outside of the gaming premises can result in the loss of your gaming license and lead to your loss of employment at the Little Creek Casino Resort.

- Pilferage and misappropriation of goods and property while in transport or custody of Casino departments. Examples are Casino working banks, (Cage, Keno, Poker, F&B etc.) overages paid by the Cage Cashier to Casio employees in the form of gaming chips and/or cash, embezzlement, fraud, altered financial documents etc.
The Squaxin Island Gaming Commission has established a Zero Tolerance Policy with the respect to theft; embezzlement, fraud, forgery or any criminal offense involving a licensee’s improper taking of the money or property of the Tribe, patrons, employees or others. Such offenses whether or no referred for criminal prosecution may result in license revocation regardless of the value of theft.
As an example, the Commission has revoked the license of an employee who found a $1.00 ticket on the floor and cashed it out, rather than turning it in as required by Casino policy.
