ATLANTIC CITY - Former casino service employees who have not worked at a gaming hall in the past three years will see their registrations expire Tuesday.
About 16,500 names are expected to be purged from the Casino Control Commission's database, commission Chair Linda M. Kassekert said Thursday.
Casino service employees are considered workers whose jobs require them to be on the casino floor but are not gaming-related, such as bartenders, cocktail servers and maintenance workers.
Before a change was made to the Casino Control Act, their registrations never expired.
"By eliminating more than half of the people in our casino service industry database, we can redirect regulatory resources and focus on the people who are actually working in our casino hotels," Kassekert said in a statement.
The commission's database will be reviewed each month to identify more people who have been inactive in the industry for at least three years.
In addition, if a person has not worked as a casino service employee but remains employed by a casino hotel, his or her registration will not expire. Once that person leaves the industry, the registration will terminate three years later.
