Swiss Casinos secures ISO 14001 certification

Land-based and online casino operator meeting the highest environmental standards with plans to further reduce its footprint and impact

Swiss Casinos, the renowned multi-channel casino operator in Switzerland, has secured ISO 14001 certification as part of wider ESG efforts.

ISO 14001 is an internationally recognised standard for Environmental Management Systems and sets out requirements for organisations to meet to systematically improve environmental performance.

The framework it sets out allows companies to identify, control and continuously reduce their impacts on the environment.

By receiving ISO 14001 certification, Swiss Casinos has proved that it meets requirements and standards for its Environmental Policy, Planning, Implementation, Monitoring and Measurement, as well as Corrective Actions and Continuous Improvement.

It’s also a testament to Swiss Casino’s commitment to actively reducing its environmental footprint while complying with all relevant environmental regulations.

By adhering to the ISO 14001 framework, organisations such as Swiss Casinos can benefit from cost savings, an enhanced corporate image and better alignment with customers and stakeholders.

Marcel Tobler, Chief Executive Officer at Swiss Casinos, said: “We are delighted to have received ISO 14001 certification and to meet the standards and requirements set within its framework.

“Our commitment to the environment is a deep as it is authentic, and we have long been working towards reducing our impact on the environment while improving environmental performance.

“The team has done an incredible job of not only meeting the standards set under ISO 14001 but exceeding them, ensuring Swiss Casinos sets the standard for others to follow.

“Of course, our work does not stop here, and we will continue to ensure we are doing all we can to maximise environmental performance and reduce the impact we have on the wonderful world around us.”

Swiss Casinos currently operates four casinos in Zürich, St. Gallen, Pfäffikon and Schaffhausen, although later this year it will replace its Schaffhausen property with a new state-of-the-art casino in Winterthur.

In addition to its retail properties, Swiss Casinos operates the most profitable online casino in the country, swisscasinos.ch.
