Sportsbook promises
to pay workers by today
BetonSports employees will get their severance pay, the company has promised.
A spokesman for the Ministerio de Trabajo said that inspectors visited the offices of the online sportsbook Friday and were told by a manager that an agreement was reached with employees that they would be paid no later than Thursday.
As many as 2,000 persons lost jobs when the company bowed to a U.S. court order and shut down its gambling operations. These were not only persons who took bets over the telephone or on the computer but maintenance individuals and guards.
