30+

This Duty Manager Checklist helps licensed venues such as bars, restaurants, and clubs maintain compliance and safe service. It covers key obligations under alcohol legislation (e.g., SSAA 2012), including verifying licence display and named duty manager authority, confirming the manager holds a valid certificate, and updating day-end reports. It guides checks for food availability, free water, and a reasonable range of low or non-alcoholic beverages. It also prompts interventions for intoxicated patrons, prevention of sales to minors, appropriate prohibited-person signage, and staff training requirements like LCQ and ServeWise. Use this template to standardize daily compliance and responsible service practices across shifts.
