Assessment 3 Information Subject Code: HAT205 Subject Name: Gaming and Entertainment Management in Hospitality and Tourism Assessment Title: Business Memorandum Assessment Type: Length: Written Proposal 3 pages (no more) Weighting: 40% Total Marks: Submission: 100 Online Due Date: Week 13 Your task You are required to write a three-page business memorandum in response to the given scenario below. Assessment Description In this individual assessment, you will be given an opportunity to demonstrate an understanding of responsible gambling and entertainment management by proposing solutions to address recurring and contemporary problems and issues in the gaming and entertainment industries. Assessment Instructions Scenario Congratulations, upon your graduation, you have been appointed as the gaming manager at one of the venues you have chosen to analyse in the first assessment. After a week in this role, you begin to notice that certain venue practices may be in breach of the relevant state regulations related to responsible gaming. On one occasion, your gaming employees were serving free food and alcohol to gaming patrons with an intent to motivate patrons to continue gambling; on another occasion, the gaming room stayed opened past its stated closing hours as a few high-roller gamblers were preoccupied with gambling activities. What’s more, you have read many negative commentaries on the venue’s social media page from family and friends of the gaming patrons about how dissatisfied they are with the venue’s approach to eliminating problem gambling. In response, you then enquire with staff about the reasons behind such practices and learn that one of the venue’s internal policies offers employee rewards to gaming staff if they were to achieve a certain spend on poker machines at the end of each night.

Paragraph 2: A detailed statement addressing the potential breach and harm of the current in-house employee rewards program. Paragraph 3: Recommended solutions to resolve the potential breaches outlined in the first and second paragraphs. Paragraph 4: Recommended approach to responding to negative social media commentary. Reference List: Not included in the page limit of this submission.
