Social Responsibility
Social Responsibility is an integral, essential and
indivisible part of the successful operation of any major lottery.
From the first day, an understanding of the importance
of social responsibility issues and how to manage them were among the core skills transferred to E W B I. Social responsibility
means:
-
Responsible Lottery Operation – the responsibility
to protect players, advise and support winners, operate the National/International Lottery with transparency, fairness, integrity,
efficiency, care and commitment.
-
Responsible Revenue Generation and Delivery –
the responsibility to the Government and the public to guarantee the continued delivery of revenue necessary for the implementation
of NLDTF programmes.
-
Responsible Business Practices – the responsibility
to exemplify the best of private enterprise practices while meeting both business objectives and Government policy objectives
– literally "doing well while doing good".
-
Responsible Impact Assessment – the responsibility,
as part of the overall gaming market, to acknowledge the problems that gambling can cause in society and to take a lead in
assisting Government with research, funding, self-help and intervention resources.
EWBI shareholders are committed to maximising
the potential of the National Lottery to influence South African society positively whilst at the same time minimising negative
social effects. |
