Approval of slot machines in Florida means an increase
in jobs. Jobs vary from slot machine technicians to misc. restaurant and
racetrack workers to handle the increase in customers coming to the
racetracks specifically for the slot machines.
The Mardi Gras Racetrack and Gambling Center will be the first location to
open for business. The racetrack is currently finishing hiring enough staff
to handle the addition of 1,500 slot machines. Later three more pari-mutuels
will open slot machines: Pompano Park, Dania Jai Alai, and Gulfstream Park.
Two of these locations will not open slot machines right away due to
renovations. Once the renovations are completed though, there are plans to
hire enough people to adequately handle the increase in visitors to the
locations once the slot machines are open. And just like the
Mardi-Gras racetrack, the opening of more slot machine casinos means that
more Floridians will have the chance at the many skilled and unskilled
positions necessary to adequately run a casino.
