For Rivers Casino and Resort Schenectady in the US state of New York, Earth Day is a concept the property has embraced since its inception.

Built on the site of a decades-old brownfield on the Mohawk River, it’s now home to a hub for business, living, recreation and entertainment. Rivers has an ongoing commitment to incorporate sustainable practices and pro-environment policies into its organisational culture in order to have a positive impact on its team members and the community.

“Protecting the environment and being a good corporate citizen is part of our DNA,” said Rivers Casino general manager Rob Long. “We’ve been able to establish a pro-environment workplace that not only helps protect the world we live in, but also goes way beyond that by being socially-conscious and economically beneficial to our local communities.”
