Community has prepared several booklets dealing with some of the issues faced by betting shop employees. Please download these PDF's.
Hours of work
Many betting shop staff work long hours due to under-staffing of shops, later closing times or just to earn more money than their normal weekly wage provides.
Single Staffing
Betting shop staff often find themselves in a position of single—staffing their shops for a variety of reasons. Working alone in the betting shop environment can be stressful or create difficulties in taking breaks ( see “Hours of Work” leaflet in this series) , not to mention potentially dangerous in certain circumstances.
Violence at work
Violent incidents against shop staff have recently hit the headlines with betting shop staff often featuring as targets of abuse, attacks and robberies.
