Licensing & Social Responsibility
All staff working in licensed premises are required to understand licensing law and responsible serving practices, therefore it is essential to ensure that all employees undergo comprehensive licensing training to ensure they are fully aware of their responsibilities in serving alcohol.
The Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 states that all staff who wish to sell or serve alcohol in licensed premises must have received at least 2 hours of training, prior to starting work, to ensure that they fully understand licensing law and responsible serving practices.
The Licensing & Social Responsibility training module has been developed to meet the training specification set by the Scottish Governement, and fulfills the 2 hours training required for all staff in licensed premises as of 1st September 2009.
FLOW will be launching the Licensing and Social Responsibility training module tailored to the Licensing Act (2003) England and Wales in August 2010. Please email info@flowhospitalitytraining.co.uk to register your interest and receive notification as soon as it is available.
