Anyone serving alcohol to customers must do so responsibly. This includes owners and licensees of premises, bar and drinks staff and security and other staff who might make judgements about patron behaviour. Alcohol affects people differently and it’s important to recognise when someone is, or isn't becoming alcohol-affected to the point where no more should be served. Even more critical is the ability to deal with a situation effectively and appropriately without disturbing other patrons. This video covers the skills required to ensure the responsible service of alcohol and includes interviews with hotel and live music venue owner Greg Dodds and wine bar operators Mark and Meredith Telfer. It is an ideal resource for learners in Hospitality and related courses.
