All 2,000 employees are returning, with the exception of 20 staffers over age 65 who chose not to, Sarris said. Guests will find hand sanitizer stations placed throughout the casino, including the main floor, hotel lobby, restaurants, elevators and entrances for both patrons and employees. Shift changes add to the cleaning protocol for handheld radios, cellphones and engineering tools. Every time dealers leave the tables, their cards, chips and whatever other high-touch objects will be cleaned off. The Rohnert Park casino, which opened in 2013, will undergo “around-the-clock” electrostatic spraying designed to kill viruses, bacteria and other pathogens. Described as hospital grade–type disinfecting, “clean” is the operative word for the reopening of the 680,000-square-foot resort and casino.
