Answer to Question 1

A duty of care is a legal concept that requires managers to use reasonable care when performing any act that could potentially harm others. Some examples of common duties of care include duty to provide a safe facility, duty to warn of unsafe conditions, duty to train staff appropriately, and duty to serve alcohol safely.

Answer to Question 2

Alcohol is classified as a depressant. Properly used, it is harmless and eve promotes good health. Its excessive use, however, can lead to addiction, harm to the drinker and to others, coma, or even death. As a result, the consumption and sale of alcohol is closely regulated by society. Only those individuals and companies that have proven themselves responsible in the serving of alcohol are granted the right, and allowed to retain the right, to sell alcohol. Serving alcohol without the express consent of the state in which it is served is illegal and can lead to fines and imprisonment.
