What is a key focus in policy reinforcement for serving alcoholic beverages?

  1. Avoiding responsibilities

  2. Instructing and reinforcing through management and employees

  3. Only reprimanding employees for non-compliance

  4. Focusing on profit over policy

The correct answer is: Instructing and reinforcing through management and employees

Explanation One key focus in policy reinforcement for serving alcoholic beverages is instructing and reinforcing compliance through management and employees. Option A, avoiding responsibilities, is incorrect because failing to enforce policies can lead to negative consequences for both the business and the serving of alcohol. Option C, only reprimanding employees for non-compliance, is incorrect because it does not emphasize the importance of reinforcing policies through positive instruction and support. Option D, focusing on profit over policy, is incorrect because prioritizing profit over policy can lead to legal and ethical issues.
