Unibet and SEF in a unique collaboration to enhance safer gambling
The online training follows on from the match-fixing course that was conducted earlier this Spring. The work with player responsibility and safer gambling is a major part of Kindred's sustainability strategy and is a key element of their partnership with Swedish Elite Football (SEF).
"During our partnership with Swedish Elite Football (SEF), we have made several efforts to fight match-fixing and harmful gambling. This training is only one example of the work we do with SEF and we will continue our great efforts throughout the contract period," says Philip Lagström, Country Manager Unibet Sweden.
"For us, it is very important to share and contribute our knowledge through this sponsorship. Unibet wants a sustainable gambling industry and our ambition is to reach zero per cent revenue derived from harmful gambling by 2023", concludes Lagström
"For some individuals, in society as well as within the athletic environment, gambling can, unfortunately, become a problem. Together with our partner Unibet, we want to take responsibility and offer an additional responsible gambling tool through this training," says Anders Wikström, League Integrity Officer at Swedish Elite Football.
"The online training contains a self-assessment where by answering certain questions, you get insight into your current gambling behaviour. Something that we see as a very important measure. The training also contains contact information for those who feel that they might be in a harmful situation, which provides us with reassurance," adds Wikström.
