General - all four licensing objectives (b, c, d, and e) (please read guidance note 10)
Tesco is a large national operator with a range of head office and local support. The company has devised policies, procedures, systems, and training to ensure that they sell alcohol in a responsible manner.
There is a detailed programme which ensures that comprehensive training is provided to employees having regard to their role and the responsibilities and such training is regularly reviewed, and records kept.
b) The prevention of crime and disorder
We will have a digital CCTV system that covers the premises, including the main area which will be used for display of alcohol. Images will be retained for 31 days.
A member of the management team will be on the premises all the time the store is open. This colleague will have responsibility for the premises and will be the initial point of contact for any issues that may arise.
c) Public safety
The premises licence holder is fully aware of its responsibilities under a range of health and safety related legislation and has policies and procedures in place to be confident of complying with the relevant obligations which arise.
d) The prevention of public nuisance
The company has a 'good neighbour' ethos which seeks to ensure that the premises plays an active part in the local community.
e) The protection of children from harm
The premises will operate a Think 25 policy. The checkouts will be programmed to prompt the customer assistant when an alcohol product is scanned at the checkout to follow the Think 25 policy.
All colleagues will receive training in relation to the underlying law and Tesco policy, systems, and procedures.
This training will be documented, and refresher training will be provided on a regular basis.
