As Nevada continues to report record new cases of Coronavirus, some Las Vegas casino employees could be terminated for refusing to wear face masks. Spokespersons for The Venetian and Caesars have both indicated that masks are a condition of employment.
The Las Vegas Sands Corporation, who run The Venetian, has said that employees who fail to wear a face-covering “will be subject to progressive discipline up to and including termination”. Meanwhile, Caesars CEO Tony Rodio said “the failure to wear your mask at work will be grounds for termination.”
Guests are still being required under the current mandate to wear face coverings while on casino property. A representative for Wynn Resorts say there are no mask issues for employees at their properties.
