      Corporate Charitable Contribution Matching

      We have implemented a Charitable Contribution Matching Program to support our commitment to corporate responsibility.

      Diversity & Inclusion
      diversity

      Since our formation, we have been committed to creating and maintaining a workplace in which all Team Members have the opportunity to participate and contribute to the success of the business and are valued for their skills, experience, and unique perspectives. This commitment extends to every individual in our organization, including our Board of Directors, executive management, and all other VICI Team Members. We also seek to further realize our commitment to diversity and inclusion in our engagement with tenants, vendors and suppliers, external advisors and other third parties.

      In January 2021, our Chief Executive Officer, Ed Pitoniak, sent a letter to our Team Members affirming our Company’s commitment to a diverse and inclusive workplace and outlining our goals as an organization and key next steps in this effort. We are firmly committed to the encouragement and facilitation of diversity and inclusion, equal opportunities, a culture of inclusivity, personal and professional development, optimal performance and engagement of our Team Members. We believe that a diverse and inclusive workforce makes us better, most fundamentally because diverse and inclusive teams produce more innovative ideas, increase creativity and deliver better results for our stakeholders.

      As of December 31, 2020, 43% of our Board of Directors and 50% of our independent directors are female, 50% of our corporate employees are female and 25% of our named executive officers are female. In addition, 33% of our corporate employees identify as a member of an ethnic and/or racial minority group.

      Vici Volunteers – Our Community Service Initiative

      In 2020, we formed a group comprised of team members from across our organization to guide our organization’s community service and engagement initiatives. In the past year, our VICI Volunteers worked thoughtfully to continue contributing to our communities in light of the challenges to traditional volunteer efforts presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. We are encouraged by the early activity of our VICI Volunteers initiative, in conjunction with charitable activity by the Company and at each of our golf courses, including those efforts described below. In the future, we expect to return to participating in community volunteer days with local organizations that align with our goals as a corporate citizen.

      Barstool Fund Donation

      In January 2021, in support of our tenant, Penn National Gaming, and their partnership with Barstool Sports, we made a donation to the Barstool Fund, dedicated to supporting small business owners across the country in need of help due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are proud to support the efforts of our tenant and the Barstool Fund in raising money to help small businesses survive through the unprecedented challenge of COVID-19.

      Year-End Matched Fundraising Drive

      In December 2020, our VICI Volunteers team organized a company-matched fundraising drive through which we selected four charitable organizations, two in Las Vegas, Nevada and two in New York, New York, for matching employee donations, in addition to supporting corporate donations to each organization.

      Bluegrass Downs Land Donation

      In November 2020, we announced the donation of approximately 58 acres of real estate of the property known as Bluegrass Downs, a former race track in Paducah, Kentucky, to McCracken County. Bluegrass Downs ceased operations in November 2019, and the property is expected to be developed into a youth sports facility, providing soccer, baseball and softball facilities for the approximately 1,200 local youth and facilitating additional sports and tourism-related opportunities for local communities.

      Lake Charles Relief Fund Contribution

      In August and September 2020, following the impacts of Hurricane Laura and Hurricane Delta, respectively, we contributed to relief funds organized by two of our tenants, Caesars Entertainment, and Penn National Gaming, for the benefit of their employees in the region to receive financial assistance for their immediate needs in the wake of these disasters, including food, clothing and shelter.

      The Bowery Mission Volunteer Effort

      In January 2020, we donated to The Bowery Mission, an organization that serves the immediate needs of the population of nearly 70,000 people experiencing homelessness and hunger in New York City. Since 1870, The Bowery Mission has served three meals a day, seven days per week at four sites in Manhattan, New York and our team volunteered to support kitchen and maintenance staff for breakfast, including serving 248 meals, managing deliveries and inventory of donated supplies, and conducting post-service cleanup. We continued our commitment to this important cause by including The Bowery Mission in our VICI Volunteers donation initiative in December 2020.

      New York Restoration Project Volunteering

      In August 2019, we partnered with the New York Restoration Project to complete general stewardship in Sherman Creek Park, a former illegal waste dumping site located in New York City that now includes a children’s garden, a boathouse and a pavilion, in addition to hiking and biking trails, waterfront and picnic spaces and naturalized areas. Our volunteer efforts supported a long-term plan for Sherman Creek Park, including a focus on regenerating a functional ecosystem that is habitable for birds and pollinators, and creating a welcoming space for the surrounding communities.

      Employee Engagement and Training
      Employee Engagement
      Great Place to work

      In 2020, we conducted our second annual employee engagement survey through the Great Place to Work® Institute in order to monitor the satisfaction of our employees and to utilize the results to improve our company. Following the completion of this survey, we were certified as a Great Place to Work® by the Great Place to Work® Institute for the second year in a row.

      Employee Education

      We invest in employee education, training and development by conducting regular training programs to educate and advance our employees’ understanding of concepts relevant to our business, such as information and cybersecurity, professional development, and with respect to important issues such as diversity, anti-harassment and other matters outlined in our Code of Business Conduct and Corporate Social Responsibility Policy. We also anticipate further expanding our training program in 2021. In addition, we encourage our employees to pursue professional development through external education and certifications through a broadly applicable and flexible tuition reimbursement policy.

      Equal Opportunity and Anti-Discrimination

      We are an equal opportunity employer. We provide equal employment opportunities to all Team Members and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, ancestry, national origin, age, gender, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, religion, age, pregnancy and childbirth (or any related medical conditions), disability, gender identity or expression, results of genetic testing, genetic information (including, where applicable, sickle cell trait), or service in the military, or any other protected categories under applicable federal, state, and local laws. This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leave of absence, compensation, and training.

      We expressly prohibit any form of unlawful harassment or discrimination based on any of the characteristics mentioned above or any other protected category under applicable federal, state and local laws. Improper interference with the ability of our Team Members to perform their expected job duties or any other violation of this policy is not tolerated and any employee or supervisor who engages in such conduct is subject to discipline, up to and including the termination of employment.

      Labor, Health & Safety

      We are committed to contributing to sustainable economic development and responsible business practices by working with our employees, our communities, and our tenants. We comply with all applicable laws and industry standards on health and safety, wage and working hours, including overtime, and benefits. Our compensation is competitive and fair in the markets in which we operate. We do not engage in forced labor or abuse of labor, including physical abuse of employees or any form of compelled labor or child labor.

      Supplier Relationships

      We consider and evaluate our suppliers taking into consideration their ability to abide by the principles set forth in our Corporate Social Responsibility Policy and our Code of Business Conduct. We set forth our reasonable expectations for the business practices of our suppliers in our Responsible Supplier Principles. In addition, we are committed to working with suppliers who are dedicated to excellence in their respective fields, and include and support suppliers that represent diverse backgrounds, experiences, expertise and skills to assist us in supplying and growing our business. When available and feasible, we seek out opportunities to advance economic inclusion and to work with minority and women-owned or disadvantaged business enterprises.

      We aim to work with suppliers and advisors who:

      • share our goals and values with respect to social responsibility;
      • comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including employment, wage and hour, health and safety, gaming, environmental, immigration, tax, anti-bribery, anti-corruption and anti-money laundering;

      • prohibit all forms of forced labor, abuse of labor and child labor;
      • neither condone nor support, directly or indirectly, human trafficking, abusive, or illegal labor activity; and
