Correct answer

Helping staff examine IDs accurately and observe patrons for signs of intoxication

  1. A Wasting electricity
  2. B Helping staff examine IDs accurately and observe patrons for signs of intoxication
  3. C Hiding fake IDs
  4. D Reducing visibility

Why this is the answer

Good lighting in service and entry areas supports compliance by helping staff examine IDs accurately — spotting alterations, comparing photos, and reading birth dates — and by making it easier to observe patrons for signs of intoxication. Poor lighting can hide the very details staff need to verify age and assess sobriety. While ambiance matters, managers should ensure that areas where IDs are checked and where staff monitor patrons are adequately lit. This simple environmental factor meaningfully supports the accuracy of age verification and intoxication monitoring.
