RSA - Responsible Service of Alcohol, refers to a standard of alcohol service and to a training program that were both originally developed by the Australian Hotels Association AHA, in the early 1990's.
RSA Training is a nationally recognised training competency and is mandatory for all persons who serve and or sell alcohol throughout Australia. The AHA also developed the first national industry self regulation guidelines on the Responsible Service of Alcohol.
It is an offence to sell liquor to a person who is drunk or intoxicated in Australia and all bar staff, managers and licensees must be formally trained in RSA.
RSA also can also refer to the recommended or regulated operational practices of serving alcohol. Breaches of RSA by a staff member/establishment can result in substantial fines from Police/Licensing Police.
Attaining RSA training is a 6 hour process and available at both on site location and on line. An RCG (Responsible Conduct of Gambling) course will usually be required for establishments where both alcohol and gaming take place.
In addition, most states allow courses on line and can be completed in 3-5 hours. On line training benefits people in rural areas or travelers hoping to find work in Australia, who can do it before they arrive.
