(A) All persons employed in the selling and serving of alcoholic beverages shall participate in and complete a city-approved responsible beverage service training program. For a responsible beverage service training program to be approved by the city, it must effectively train its participants in the identification of false age documents and recognition of characteristics of intoxication. The city will not require enrollment in particular classes, but only that the training be obtained from a recognized program meeting the goals expressed in this chapter.
(B) All persons required to complete training under division (1) above shall complete that training within 30 days of the date on which the person first becomes subject to the training requirement. When a new business is licensed to serve alcoholic beverages all employees must be trained prior to the opening of the business.
(C) Each licensee shall be responsible for compliance with the training requirements and shall maintain, for inspection by the City ABC Administrator, a record or file on each employee that shall contain the pertinent triaging information. Each premise licensed hereunder must at all times when alcoholic beverages are being served have at least one person currently certified in responsible beverage service training on duty.
(D) All persons completing the training required by this section shall be re-certified in responsible beverage service training from a program approved by the city not less than once every three years thereafter.
