Better Health for All

Caesars Entertainment's primary revenue driver is the operation of casinos and related entertainment facilities, which have well-established negative health outcomes, particularly gambling addiction and mental health impacts. Approximately 70-80% of its revenue comes from activities with negative health impacts. The company has implemented substantial addiction mitigation efforts, including a universal exclusion policy and an enhanced 21+ gaming policy, and received a Corporate Social Responsibility Award for its dedication to responsible gaming

. These efforts represent substantial remediation for the significant health-harming externalities of its operations. Caesars also provides substantial mental health support through these policies and an employee wellness center offering primary care and fitness services . Additionally, the company distributed over 53 tons of recycled soap and shampoo to Zambia since 2010 to reduce disease spread and implemented a universal mask policy during the COVID-19 pandemic .

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

Caesars Entertainment Corporation, primarily a gaming and entertainment company, does not offer consumer lending, deposit, or debt products, nor does it operate financial service access points. Consequently, KPIs related to underserved client share, pricing fairness, exploitative fee exposure, inclusion initiatives (loan/insurance book), customer finance data accessibility, fair lending compliance, wealth building outcomes, debt burden ratio, geographic inclusion, and product simplicity are not applicable to its core business model. While the company launched an Economic Equity Tour to promote financial literacy, the articles do not provide specific data on the reach or outcomes of these programs, leading to its omission.

There is also no evidence of company profit reinvestment in community finance or profit-sharing with underserved communities.

Approximately 44% of permanent U.S. Team Members were covered by collective bargaining agreements in 2024.

No War, No Weapons

Caesars Entertainment Corporation operates in the gaming and hospitality sector, which is distinct from military operations.

The company lacks involvement in military contracts, resulting in 0% revenue from arms or defense contracts. Consequently, there is no defense business for the board to oversee, no defense assets to divest, and the company is not subject to Arms Trade Treaty declarations. This business model inherently results in zero exposure to controversial weapons.
