Not every department includes team members at minimum wage but this increase does still impact a large percentage of team members. Of its current 1,275 team members, a total of 1,038 will be affected by the wage increase. We very much wanted to both be competitive and provide a living wage for our team members,” SCR Human Resources Director Gloria Baron said.
“The labor market in Southern California has become very competitive, and we recognize the difficulties many of our team members face with rising inflation and the cost of living in general. A recent shortage of workers at all types of businesses throughout the country led SCR management to make the decision to raise its minimum wage to $17 for its hourly employees. The Soboba Casino Resort has been able to recruit and retain successful employees since it first opened its doors in 2019 even amid the mandatory shutdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
