SAFETY, SECURITY AND LICENSING

23 of 86

What is Licensing Law and why do we have it?

    • The retail sale of alcohol is highly regulated in order to reduce the harms that can arise from alcohol misuse
    • The Licensing Act 2003, groups together the sale/supply of alcohol, public entertainment and late night refreshment under one piece of legislation.
    • The Licensing act is governed by the local authorities which are the local council and police. Between them they work in partnership with licensed premises to uphold the licensing act.
    • In addition, schemes like Pubwatch help to improve communication between licensees, police and local authorities as a result, this reduces crime and disorder.
    • Sales of alcohol can only be made once a designated premise supervisor (DPS) has been appointed and named on a premise license

The role of a DPS

•Our DPS is Michael Bolton

•Cooperate with authorities in promoting the licensing objectives.

•Be the point of contact for police and licensing authority.

CSE – Child Sexual Exploitation

What is Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE)

Child sexual exploitation is a form of child sexual abuse. It occurs where an individual or group takes advantage of an imbalance of power to coerce, manipulate or deceive a child or young person under the age of 18 into sexual activity (a) in exchange for something the victim needs or wants and/or (b) for the financial advantage or increased status of the perpetrator or facilitator. The victim may have been sexually exploited, even if the sexual activity appears consensual. Child sexual exploitation does not always involve physical contact; it can also occur through the use of technology.

33 of 86

How to Identity CSE ?

    • Does the person appear to be be under the influence of drugs/alcohol? Ask yourself who is purchasing the alcohol for them? Have you seen them consuming alcohol or do they appear to be under the influence of another substance?
    • Does the person appear to be in a relationship with a controlling or significantly older individuals or group?
    • Does the person have signs of self-harm or significant changes in emotional well-being
    • Do they appear to be over familiar with strangers
    • Are they dressed in a sexually provocative manner

34 of 86

What Actions Can Be Taken?

    • If you suspect anyone of being at risk of CSE, then you must notify your Duty Manager and or Door Staff of your concerns immediately.
    • The venues age verification policy (Challenge 25) is in place to establish the age of anyone you feel may be at risk.
    • If you believe anyone to be in immediate risk of harm, you should notify the duty manager, They may choose to call the Emergency services.
    • Consider asking the child / person do they need assistance.
    • Consider inviting them to a safe space away from person causing distress. To discuss their safety.
    • If required, consider asking the person causing the distress to leave.

35 of 86

Police conduct test purchases. This is where they will send a minor into a venue to attempt to buy alcohol.

If we fail a test purchase the potential repercussions are:

    • The employee - could receive a £90 fine upon failure of a test purchase.
    • A criminal record
    • Loss of their job, as their employer maybe required to dismiss them due to their illegal actions

    • The company -Could receive a fine of up to £20,000
    • 3 month suspension of their licenses. If failed on 2 or more occasions within 3 consecutive months.
    • A review of their premises license, which may result in restrictions on their ability to sell alcohol, or the revocation of their license all together.
    • Criminal prosecution

If you can prove to have followed all reasonable steps (customer presented a convincing ID) you may be able to defend yourself.

    • One small (125ML) glass of wine at 9% is one unit.
    • A 25ML measure of spirit at 40% is one unit
    • It usually takes 1 hour for a unit to exit your system
    • We are to restrict customers on drinking multiples of high ABV spirits at one time. If you are unsure always consult your supervisor.

The Weights and Measures Act 1985 is a UK law that regulates the sale of alcoholic drinks in bars and other licensed premises. The act requires that alcoholic drinks be sold in specific quantities, such as 1/3 pint, 1/2 pint, and 1 pint. The Weights and Measures Act 1985 also regulates the sale of spirits, such as whiskey, gin, and vodka. The act requires that spirits be sold in specific quantities, such as 25ml, 35ml and 50ml measures and that measuring instruments, such as beer glasses, jiggers and optics are used correctly.

Weights and Measures Act

48 of 86

Weights and measures: How we Serve

    • Shooters are served in 25ml shot glasses

49 of 86

Serving sharing drinks

    • We have a policy in place which restricts customers from consuming high levels of alcohol at once.

    • If a customer was to order either a bottle of Wine, Champagne or a sharing pitcher then you need to ask “How many glasses?” if the customer say “Just one” or “just a straw” you need to inform them that these drinks are for sharing purposes only and you cannot serve it to them for their individual consumption.

    • In addition, if a customer was to order a bottle of spirit, they would have to have this bottle sat at a table with multiple glasses and mixers and are not allowed to carry this around our venue. We must remember customers are not to dispense this directly into their mouths.

Advice on Refusing Service

    • Refusal to serve can embarrass and provoke an aggressive reaction. Don’t be confrontational or use threatening body language.
    • Try not to talk down to people or embarrass them in front of their friends.
    • When asking for proof of age, explain that it is a legal policy and requests are made whenever a customer looks under 25.
    • In the case of failure to present a valid ID, politely say: ‘If you are 18, I apologise, but in my opinion you look under 25 and I regret I cannot serve you’. Then inform your nearest door staff who will escort the customer out of the venue
    • Make ‘Low Risk’ options available to slow alcohol intake, for example, offer non-alcoholic or low alcohol drinks. Or even a glass of tap water and inform them to come back in half an hour
    • If the customer if heavily intoxicated alert door staff who will politely remove them from the venue to prevent further alcohol intake

53 of 86

Noticing Signs of Conflict

    • Raised voices
    • Swearing
    • The sound of broken glass
    • Large groups gathering or moving around
    • Individuals playing to an audience

54 of 86

Dealing with conflict

• Be calm and polite.

• Know the policies and explain them calmly.

• Never put yourself at risk in a situation.

• Seek assistance.

• If necessary call the police.

55 of 86

Drink Spiking

Spiking is where alcohol or drugs are added to someone's drink without them knowing, or as seen in the current trend ‘spiked’ by needles/syringes potentially containing drugs.

Alcohol is the most common substance used to spike drinks. It can be added to a soft drink without the victim knowing, or double/further measures can be used instead of singles.

Some examples of drugs that have reportedly been used for spiking include:

• gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) and gamma-butyrolactone (GBL)

• tranquillisers, most often benzodiazepines, including Valium (diazepam) and Rohypnol

• ketamine

Some drugs are particularly dangerous when mixed with alcohol because they combine to have a very powerful anaesthetic effect. Such drugs may come in powder, tablet or liquid form and do not always have an unusual taste or smell.

56 of 86

Drink Spiking

and What We Do

• Monitor unattended drinks

• Be alert for unusual requests for additional shots to a drink

• Be alert of unusual behaviours

• Have drink toppers available

• Clear all lone glasses

• Be sympathetic to those who claim spiking

57 of 86

Manual Handling

• The Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992 define it as 'any transporting or supporting of a load (including the lifting, putting down, pushing, pulling, carrying or moving thereof) by hand or by bodily force.

• Anyone involved in the moving or handling of goods could be at risk to injury, even when lifting light loads if the task is repetitive.

• Injuries related to manual handling activities are sometimes called musculoskeletal disorders. These include injuries to joints and other tissues in the upper and lower limbs or back. They account for more than a third of all new and long-standing cases of work-related ill health

Manual Handling

    • Before carrying out any task, you must first assess the task, individual, load and environment.

    • Task – consider if the activity involves any twisting, stooping, bending, travel, pushing, pulling, sudden movement of the load, team handling or seated work.
    • Individual - individuals have varied physical capacity, and this should be considered in your assessment. It is important to look at each individual's physical capability before carrying out a task. Anyone with a known injury or disability should be individually assessed. Special assessments will be required for young workers and those with impaired vision, reduced grip strength, pregnancy or disability.
    • Load - consider if the load is heavy, difficult to grasp, sharp, hot or cold or if the contents are likely to move or shift.
    • Environment - you need to think about the working environment as this may increase the risk related to the task. Consider floor conditions, variations on floor levels, space constraints, poor lighting or ventilation. Also hot or cold environments and wind conditions can all have an impact.
