Alcohol Server · Manager Responsibilities

What is a primary responsibility of a manager at an establishment that serves alcohol?

Correct answer

Ensuring the establishment and its staff comply with alcohol laws and serve responsibly

  1. A Maximizing alcohol sales at any cost
  2. B Ensuring the establishment and its staff comply with alcohol laws and serve responsibly
  3. C Personally serving every customer
  4. D Ignoring server conduct

Why this is the answer

A primary responsibility of a manager is to ensure the establishment and its staff comply with all applicable alcohol laws and serve responsibly — including verifying that servers check IDs, avoid serving minors and intoxicated persons, and follow house policies. Managers set the tone for the establishment's culture of compliance and are accountable for the conduct of service under the business's license. Prioritizing lawful, responsible service over raw sales protects the license, the staff, and the public. This oversight role is central to a manager's duties.
