Mich. Admin. Code R. 432.1337 - Occupational-licensing procedures

Rule 337.

(1) An applicant for an occupational license must complete an application in the manner and form prescribed by the board and submit it together with the required application fee and a written statement from an applicant for or holder of a casino or supplier license or person with an exemption from the supplier-licensing requirements indicating that it has employed or will employ the applicant if the applicant is licensed.

(2) After the board has received the completed occupational-license application, appropriate application fee, and written statement, the board shall review the applicant's application and conduct a criminal history check on the applicant.

(3) If a preliminary review of the application and the criminal history check does not uncover or indicate any apparent deficiencies in the application or other circumstances that may require denial of the application under the licensing standards of the act and these rules, then the executive director may issue a temporary occupational license to the applicant. The temporary occupational license authorizes the applicant to perform the employment duties for which the license is sought, pending board action on the applicant's license application.

A temporary license issued under this rule is valid until the occupational-license application is withdrawn or denied or the temporary license is suspended or revoked or the license is issued by the board.

(4) A temporary occupational licensee shall receive a temporary license. The color of the temporary license shall be different from the occupational license that is given to an occupational licensee upon issuance of a full occupational license. The temporary license shall contain and display information as prescribed by the board.

(5) Temporary occupational licensees shall wear and clearly display their temporary license at all times during work hours at the casino.

(6) A person must pay a fee of $10.00 to the board for any replacement of a temporary license.

(7) A temporary license shall not be transferred and shall be immediately returned to the board if the temporary licensee resigns or if his or her employment at the casino is terminated.

(8) If a temporary occupational license is suspended or revoked, then the applicant shall not continue performing duties requiring that license.

(9) If an applicant's temporary level 1 or level 2 license is suspended or revoked, then the executive director shall, at the conclusion of the background investigation, forward the applicant's application and written report to the board for action. The report must state the reasons for the recommendation for board action on the application.

(10) An occupational license applicant shall, before issuance of an occupational license, have the burden of producing the information, documentation, and assurances in his or her application to establish, by clear and convincing evidence, that the applicant is eligible, qualified, and suitable to receive the occupational license for which application is made, under the licensing standards in the act and these rules.

(11) The applicant shall demonstrate to the board a level of skill, knowledge, or experience reasonably necessary to perform the job duties required for the occupational license for which application is made. However, an applicant may still be employed by a casino licensee or casino license applicant to perform the duties if the casino licensee or casino license applicant agrees to provide necessary training to the applicant.

(12) Unless waived by the board, an applicant whose name appears on the exclusion list of any jurisdiction, or who has had a gaming-related license suspended or revoked in any jurisdiction by reason of theft, dishonesty, or fraud, is not eligible, qualified, or suitable to be issued an occupational license.

(13) An applicant shall also be in substantial compliance with all local, state, and federal laws, have good moral character, reputation, and integrity, and comply with any other licensing standards that the board deems necessary to ensure compliance with the act and these rules and protect the public and the credibility and integrity of gaming in the state.
