Abstract
Problem gambling causes serious problems to personal well-being, families, communities, and even a country's economy. This article highlights the impacts of problem gambling and evaluates the current preventive measures taken by the federal and state governments and other organizations in Australia. This article also presents recommendations to bolster the current preventive measures to reduce the widespread impacts of problem gambling. Exclusion programs, education about responsible gambling, involvement of the federal government, website filtering, direct mailing of responsible gambling brochures, and automatic reminders in electronic gaming machines are recommendations devised to augment the current preventive measures in Australia in relation to problem gambling.
