Operation of Lottery (Department of Consumer Protection) > Agent employees
Short Summary
This section of the Connecticut Administrative Code governs the utilization of agent employees in the activities authorized under an agent’s license for the operation of a lottery. An agent is permitted to utilize the services of its employees, but assumes full responsibility for their activities and consequences. The department reserves the right to order that an employee not engage in the sale or exchange of tickets. If the agent will not be directly involved in ticket sales, a designated employee must be appointed and approved by the department to manage the agent’s lottery business. The agent must notify the department in writing within fifteen days of any replacement of the designated employee. The agent is responsible for ensuring that all employees involved in the conduct of lottery business are adequately trained, and the designated employee may be authorized to train other employees. In any proceedings initiated by the department against an agent, it is not a defense that an employee or contractor acted contrary to an order or that the agent did not participate in any violations. The agent may be held liable for any violations committed by its employees and contractors. This section was adopted on October 6, 1999, and amended on April 13, 2021.
