Correct answer

Monitor entry (including IDs), manage crowds, and respond to incidents safely

A Monitor entry (including IDs), manage crowds, and respond to incidents safely
B Avoid checking IDs
C Sell more alcohol
D Close early

Why this is the answer

Coordinating with security or door staff on busy nights helps managers monitor entry — including checking IDs at the door — manage crowd levels, and respond quickly and safely to any incidents. A coordinated team can prevent minors or already-intoxicated individuals from entering, defuse problems early, and ensure refusals or ejections are handled safely. Managers should ensure clear communication and defined roles between servers, security, and management. This teamwork strengthens both compliance (age checks) and safety (incident response), especially during high-volume periods when risks rise.
