Regulators notified all gambling license holders last week, saying that they plan to enact "regulations or minimum internal control standards" focused on sexual harassment. "How to appropriately address sexual harassment is an important and necessary discussion," Nevada Gaming Control Board chairwoman Becky Harris said in a statement. The checklist asks whether a company's policies include an "unequivocal statement that sexual harassment will not be tolerated" and "regular compliance trainings for all employees." Wynn, who has vehemently denied the allegations, resigned Feb. 6 as chairman and CEO of Wynn Resorts. MGM Resorts International told the AP that its policies "expressly prohibit" sexual harassment" and has regular, mandatory training for employees and managers.
