Correct answer

Skills and vigilance can fade, and reinforcement keeps standards high and consistent

A Training once is always enough
B Staff never make mistakes
C Skills and vigilance can fade, and reinforcement keeps standards high and consistent
D It wastes time

Why this is the answer

Ongoing supervision and periodic reinforcement of responsible-service practices are important because knowledge and vigilance can fade over time, new staff join, and busy periods can tempt shortcuts. Regular reminders, coaching, and monitoring keep standards high and consistent and catch problems early. Relying on a single initial training is not enough to sustain a strong compliance culture. Managers play an active role by observing service, giving feedback, and revisiting key practices, ensuring that responsible service remains a living standard rather than a one-time lesson.
