Licensed Venues and Intoxicated People
Readiness training. Guarding.Tech does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
Bars, pubs, clubs, hotels and event venues that sell alcohol need a licence. Guards and door staff at these places decide who comes in, keep an eye on people who have had too much to drink, and help move people out safely. Most nights are fun and calm. Trouble usually comes from alcohol, crowds and tired people late at night.
Focus: judge intoxication by what you see and hear. Refuse entry early, politely and firmly. Ask people to leave without force where you can. A drunk person who leaves is still at risk, so think about where they are going.
Learning objectives
- Check age and conditions of entry at the door.
- Judge whether a person is intoxicated from their speech, balance, coordination and behaviour.
- Refuse entry calmly and fairly.
