Current through Vol. 24-12, July 15, 2024
Rule 337.
(1) An
				  applicant for an occupational license must complete an application in the
				  manner and form prescribed by the board and submit it together with the
				  required application fee and a written statement from an applicant for or
				  holder of a casino or supplier license or person with an exemption from the
				  supplier-licensing requirements indicating that it has employed or will employ
				  the applicant if the applicant is licensed.
(2) After the board has received the
				  completed occupational-license application, appropriate application fee, and
				  written statement, the board shall review the applicant's application and
				  conduct a criminal history check on the applicant.
(3) If a preliminary review of the
				  application and the criminal history check does not uncover or indicate any
				  apparent deficiencies in the application or other circumstances that may
				  require denial of the application under the licensing standards of the act and
				  these rules, then the executive director may issue a temporary occupational
				  license to the applicant. The temporary occupational license authorizes the
				  applicant to perform the employment duties for which the license is sought,
				  pending board action on the applicant's license application.
A temporary license issued under this rule is valid until
					 the occupational-license application is withdrawn or denied or the temporary
					 license is suspended or revoked or the license is issued by the board.
(4) A temporary occupational
				  licensee shall receive a temporary license. The color of the temporary license
				  shall be different from the occupational license that is given to an
				  occupational licensee upon issuance of a full occupational license. The
				  temporary license shall contain and display information as prescribed by the
				  board.
(5) Temporary occupational
				  licensees shall wear and clearly display their temporary license at all times
				  during work hours at the casino.
(6) A person must pay a fee of $10.00 to the
				  board for any replacement of a temporary license.
(7) A temporary license shall not be
				  transferred and shall be immediately returned to the board if the temporary
				  licensee resigns or if his or her employment at the casino is
				  terminated.
(8) If a temporary
				  occupational license is suspended or revoked, then the applicant shall not
				  continue performing duties requiring that license.
(9) If an applicant's temporary level 1 or
				  level 2 license is suspended or revoked, then the executive director shall, at
				  the conclusion of the background investigation, forward the applicant's
				  application and written report to the board for action. The report must state
				  the reasons for the recommendation for board action on the
				  application.
(10) An occupational
				  license applicant shall, before issuance of an occupational license, have the
				  burden of producing the information, documentation, and assurances in his or
				  her application to establish, by clear and convincing evidence, that the
				  applicant is eligible, qualified, and suitable to receive the occupational
				  license for which application is made, under the licensing standards in the act
				  and these rules.
(11) The applicant
				  shall demonstrate to the board a level of skill, knowledge, or experience
				  reasonably necessary to perform the job duties required for the occupational
				  license for which application is made. However, an applicant may still be
				  employed by a casino licensee or casino license applicant to perform the duties
				  if the casino licensee or casino license applicant agrees to provide necessary
				  training to the applicant.
(12)
				  Unless waived by the board, an applicant whose name appears on the exclusion
				  list of any jurisdiction, or who has had a gaming-related license suspended or
				  revoked in any jurisdiction by reason of theft, dishonesty, or fraud, is not
				  eligible, qualified, or suitable to be issued an occupational
				  license.
(13) An applicant shall
				  also be in substantial compliance with all local, state, and federal laws, have
				  good moral character, reputation, and integrity, and comply with any other
				  licensing standards that the board deems necessary to ensure compliance with
				  the act and these rules and protect the public and the credibility and
				  integrity of gaming in the state.
