Transcript of video Legal protection for liquor accords using price or supply controlsLicensees who collectively implement price or supply controls on alcoholic drinks may risk reducing competition under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (CCA). However, exemptions from the competition provisions within the CCA may be available for liquor accords (and safe night precinct boards) in certain circumstances. This means, liquor accords may adopt price or supply controls where relevant alcohol-related problems have been identified in their communities and the controls are registered by the Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation.

Getting drunk and drunken behaviour is viewed to be a common and sometimes expected part of the drinking experience in Western Australia. Changing community acceptance of drunkenness and the problems that go with it is one of the most important parts of creating a less harmful drinking culture. Creating support and expectations for licensed settings that encourage sensible drinking through the responsible service of alcohol is one strategy to assist in reducing alcohol-related problems on and off licensed premises. In Western Australia, there are laws in relation to serving alcohol. A licensee, manager or employee (whether in paid employment or as a volunteer) are required to comply with these laws:
Responsible service laws help to reduce the likelihood that others will cause problems for you, your friends or your family. How can I support responsible service of alcohol?
Can I be refused entry to a licensed premise or service of alcohol if I appear to be drunk? Answer: Yes. If your speech, balance, coordination or behaviour is noticeably impaired it is reasonable for bar staff to believe that you are drunk and as such are supported by the law to refuse entry or service. Is it an offence for bar staff to serve alcohol to me when I appear to be drunk? Answer: Yes. It is an offence to sell or supply alcohol to a drunken person on licensed or regulated premises. Isn’t it the individual‘s responsibility to stop drinking rather than it being up to the bar staff to refuse them service? Answer: Alcohol is a drug that affects the central nervous system and brain function. Consuming alcohol can affect the drinker’s ability to think rationally and to reasonably deal with situations or their environment. Bar staff have a legal responsibility to refuse service of alcohol to people who are drunk. Responsible Service of Alcohol PostersA selection of posters has been developed for retailers.

There are other advantages to RSA training that workers should be aware of because it will motivate them to complete their RSA course as required by the law. One of the biggest benefits of RSA training is that it teaches you to serve alcohol in a manner that maintains the good reputation of the establishment. This means that you will enjoy a pleasant working environment and be confident that each time you go to work you will be safe rather than being exposed to alcohol fuelled violence. Servers of alcohol who perform their duties according to RSA regulations provide a duty of care to customers that in turn promotes job satisfaction. Workers who are serving customers responsibly and performing their duty are happier employees and so are more productive. Obviously those workers who do not adhere to RSA regulations are liable to costly fines and could face losing their jobs altogether especially if their behaviour brings a bad reputation to the venue.
