Title: Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, prohibition against licensee, agent, or employee from being employed by another licensee, deleted, Sec. 28-3A-25 am'd.
Summary: HB101 removes the prohibition that prevented Alcoholic Beverage Control Board licensees or their employees from being employed by another licensee, allowing cross-employment in the alcohol industry.
What This Bill Does
The bill amends section 28-3A-25 to delete the rule that barred licensees or their servants and employees from working for other licensees involved in manufacturing, storage, transportation, or sale of alcohol. If enacted, licensees and their workers could take jobs with multiple licensees without violating state law. This may increase staffing flexibility for businesses and employees, with the act becoming effective three months after passage.

Who It Affects
Alcoholic beverage licensees (manufacturers, importers, wholesalers, retailers, and related licensees) who may hire employees who also work for other licensees.
Employees and licensees who seek or hold multiple jobs in the alcoholic beverages industry, since cross-employment would no longer be prohibited.

Key Provisions
Deletes the prohibition in 28-3A-25(a)(7)-(8) that prevented any licensee or the servant/employee of a licensee from being employed by any other licensee engaged in the manufacture, storage, transportation, or sale of alcoholic beverages.
Effective date: The act takes effect on the first day of the third month after passage and approval by the Governor.
