Intervention
program
helps avoid
lawsuits
By Erin Lobb
T -A salt
GRAND BEND - In Malaysia a
drunk driver is jailed, if he's married
then his wife is jailed too. In EI Sal-
vador your first offence is your last.
In Grand Bend the Server Interven-
tion Program (S.I.P.) helps prevent
drunk driving by teaching responsi-
ble serving.
Servers, bartenders, door staff,
and security from Kars through out
(;rand Bend attended the fur- hour
course Monday evening at the Main -
street Hotel.
"Bar owners are getting sued. or
losing their businesses, fib they are
protecting themselves with S.I.P.,"
said Instructor Marc Kovaks. "A lot
of hotel managers require that all of
their staff have the certificate."
" We don't discourage
drinking, having a good
time, or making a fair
profit, we just want to
prevent problems"
The program was the result of
pressure by Mothers Against Drunk
Driving, and the rising number of
civil liability suits. The Addiction
Research Foundation founded the
program in 1986. Since then they
have trained all the staff at O'Toole's
franchises, at Maple Leaf Gardens,
and at many resorts in the prov-
ince.
Kovacs says that by learning to
serve properly, Kars can cut the
risk of liability suits and license re-
moval by preventing intoxication,
and learning how to manage intoxi-
cated patrons.
"Signs of impairment are not al-
ways obvious," says Jaquline Muir -
head, S.I.P. Instructor, "If people
don't get served at one place they'll
har hop until they do get served.
So just because someone just ar-
rived doesn't mean he's sober."
Despite the alternatives if a suit
is filed, some har owners are afraid
they will lose money, so they don't
take the course.
"We don't discourage drinking,
having a good time, or making a
fair profit, we just want to prevent
problems," says Kovacs.
Both instructors were surprised at
the low turnout this year. They
suspected many servers may al-
ready be certified, and coming
hack for their second year.
