Quotes Attributable to Dario Mujkic, Director of Casinos, United Workers Union

“Crown’s decision today to cease indoor smoking at its casinos by the end of next year is the right decision and is welcomed by the Union.

“United Workers Union has been in discussions with Crown about ceasing indoor smoking for some time. Indoor smoking is a hazard and should not be tolerated in any workplace. It’s dangerous, damaging to the health of everyone in the vicinity and can kill.

“Well done to the many United Workers Union members and WHS Representatives who have been fighting for this for a very long time. We will continue to engage with Crown around how this transition will be implemented.

“In the meantime, the temporary but ongoing smoking ban at Crown Melbourne must continue.”
