The initiative featured contributions from invited specialists. Dr. Cristiene Cordeiro, a clinical psychologist, shared reflections on the value of life and the importance of prevention.
“We were able to bring the theme of Yellow September and share with employees the idea that life has value; life is an irreplaceable mission. We worked on several topics within the broader field of suicide prevention, including self-care,” emphasized Dr. Cordeiro.
Next, Dr. Igor Macedo, psychologist, discussed how a healthy work environment directly contributes to employees’ mental health, providing practical guidance to strengthen emotional balance in daily life.
Another highlight was the presentation by the Instituto de Apoio ao Apostador (IAA), a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and raising awareness about Responsible Gambling practices. The session addressed gambling addiction, its warning signs, and the importance of prevention. Supporting the IAA aligns with NGX’s approach to promoting a safer and more responsible market.
“Yellow September reminds us that mental health must be a priority. For us, it is essential to provide an environment where everyone feels cared for, while reinforcing our support for responsible gaming,” said Christiane Oliveira, HR analyst at NGX.
“Preventing gambling addiction must be an ongoing priority for serious iGaming companies. Playing should be entertainment, not compulsion. Awareness is the first step, and NGX hits the mark by addressing this from the inside out, bringing the topic to be discussed and understood by its employees.”
“Through these actions, NGX reaffirms its purpose of combining innovation, social responsibility, and care for people, contributing to a safer, more human, and sustainable iGaming sector.”
