Under existing law, certain individuals under the legal drinking age of 21 may be employed by a restaurant or other business that sells alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption, provided that an individual who is 19 or 20 may serve alcoholic beverages and must do so only under the supervision of an adult.
This bill would authorize bussers and servers between the ages of 18 and 20 to serve alcoholic beverages provided they do not serve as bartenders.
This bill would revise the civil penalties for a business licensed by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board which employs a worker under the age of 21 in violation of these limitations.
This bill would also make nonsubstantive, technical revisions to update the existing code language to current style.
