Everyone working in the hospitality industry plays a part in the duty of care, and host responsibility is integral to Manaakitanga; respect and care for guests and customers.
Minimising harm and providing safer environments for the sale and supply of alcohol is a priority for the industry, and as the industry peak body, Hospitality New Zealand are taking the lead on training with the new Responsible Service of Alcohol Standards.
Host Responsibility aims to minimise alcohol harm and helps create safer drinking environments for communities and safer environments for staff, by training and empowering staff in responsible sale and supply.
The Responsible Service of Alcohol Standards course is essential training which provides knowledge of the law, the principles of responsible service and practical tools for all staff working in licensed premises to help manage alcohol safely.
