Along with Commerce Casino, doors are being shut this weekend at the Gardens Casino in Hawaiian Gardens, Bicycle Casino in Bell Gardens and Hollywood Park Casino in Inglewood, the businesses said. Hollywood Park Casino employs 152 employees. The Hollywood Park Casino management team includes Sharon Bailey (Poker Dealer), Juliana Smith (Director of Marketing and Advertising), and Gary Amundson (Controller and Chief Financial Officer). Hollywood Park casino moved into a new building more than a year ago. The new venue is, of course, better than the old one although it could have been much better: there is no gift shop, the bathrooms are too small, and there is nowhere to eat if you want to take a break from the gaming tables. Hollywood Park Casino Shakeup Worries Workers Hundreds have been told their old jobs are going away By Angie Crouch and Bill French. Published February 5, 2013. Updated on February 5, 2013.
The owner of Inglewood’s Hollywood Park Casino plans to fire all 600 casino employees next month as it prepares to hand off operations to a different company, according to a memo sent to casino employees Monday.
The memo states that the layoffs come as casino owner Hollywood Park Land Co. LLC is trying to transfer management of the casino from the current operator, Century Gaming Management Inc., to LAX Property LLC.
The owner of LAX Property, Eric Swallow, also operates a casino in San Jose, according to Inglewood City Council documents.
Unite Here Local 11, a union that represents about 150 food and beverage workers at the casino, plans to protest the change in management at an Inglewood City Council meeting tonight. Union spokeswoman Leigh Shelton said the city council must approve the license transfer and should ask the new manager to retain employees.
