Star Pubs & Bars launches compliance training for licensees

Star Pubs & Bars has launched a new e-learning package to give its tenants and lessees a low-cost way of meeting their obligations to train staff in due diligence and legal issues.

The £100 package, delivered in conjunction with CPL Online, enables licensees to train up to 10 staff in five essential areas: Food Safety, Age Verification, Fire Safety, Health & Safety and Allergens or Drug Awareness.

The online courses are designed to be used unsupervised and feature interactive animations, games and voiceovers to make the training engaging and accessible.

Star Pubs & Bars trading director Chris Jowsey said: “We know from speaking to our lessees that keeping up to date with training staff in compliance is an increasing challenge for them. With serious ramifications from unlimited fines to loss of their licence for infringements, it is an area of real concern that this new training should help address.

“Our aim is to free up our licensees to focus on their customers and business development front of house by reducing the time they spend and increasing the control they have over their back-of-house workload.”
