Problem Gambling Awareness & Recovery LLC

Speaking Engagements: For the Business Community

Helping Businesses See the Signs and Support Their Teams

Problem gambling can harm anyone in the workplace — from any background, at any level. It’s often hidden until serious damage is done, both to the individual and those around them. Our in-person talks give every member of staff the knowledge to recognise the warning signs, understand how gambling addiction develops, and know where to find help and support before it’s too late.

In-Service Training

We come to your workplace and deliver sessions built for everyone — leadership, managers, and frontline staff. The goal: help your people recognise and respond to problem gambling before it escalates.

We cover:

  • How to spot the warning signs a colleague may be struggling.

  • How gambling addiction progresses and affects behaviour.

  • Practical steps to support the individual and limit workplace disruption.

A typical session includes 40 minutes of presentation followed by a 15–20 minute Q&A and supporting resources.

Take Action Now

Problem gambling doesn’t go away on its own — it gets worse. The damage is real: lost productivity, broken trust, and staff who are struggling in silence.

Our talks cut through the myths and give your team the facts. We explain how to spot the signs, what happens if it’s ignored, and the steps that make a difference. Every session is built to suit your workplace, your industry, and your people.

Presentations are offered on a fee basis of $500 per hour plus travelling experiences at the IRS approved rate.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have you any question?

Problem gambling is the inability to control gambling despite the damage it causes. It can lead to financial problems, relationship breakdowns, and serious mental health issues. In the workplace, it often shows up as falling performance, missed deadlines, absenteeism, and, in some cases, theft or fraud to fund the habit.

Changes in behaviour are the biggest clue: unexplained absences, sudden money problems, borrowing from colleagues, secrecy around phone or computer use, and visible stress or mood swings.

Employers can create an environment where it’s safe to speak up. Co-workers can notice the signs, have honest conversations, and point people toward support. Prevention and Awareness is the first step in protecting both the person and the team.

Yes. It can happen in any workplace, at any level — from entry-level roles to senior management. You might not see it until the damage is done, but it’s more common than most employers realise.
