It is our responsibility as owners and our employees to make sure people under 21 aren’t drinking. We don’t want out business to get in trouble for serving underage drinkers in our business. Our first step to prevent underage drinkers from entering our business is to check everyone’s ID at the door. There will be someone at the door during our normal business hours to check IDS. Once, the customer has proven to be over 21, he/she will get a stamp on their hand. The stamp will identify bartenders and other employees that the customer is over 21 years old. Customers who do not have a stamp should not be getting alcoholic drinks by our bartenders. Also, employees that are working on the floor will be task to constantly check that customers with stamps are the only ones drinking alcohol. Underage drinker that get caught trying to get inside with fake ID or other ways he/she will be throw out and told to evacuate the premises. If that customer tries to enter the Bar again, our staff would have to call and notify the local police. Our employees will be on constant look out for customers who act suspicious when ordering a drink. If that does happen our staff can ask the customers to present his/her ID to make sure that he/she is not
These professors argue that student athletes, under common law and NLRB’s (National Labor Relations Board) employee criterion, do in fact fall under the classification of an employee (Cooper). Under common law, four tests determine if someone is an employee or not. Three of these rules are as follows: “(1) the right of others to control a person's activities; (2) whether that person is compensated; and (3) if that person is economically dependent on that compensation.” According to these guidelines the employer-employee relationship is plainly synonymous to that of coaches and student-athletes. For one, coaches have a significant amount of control over their student-athletes’ activities, two, athletic scholarship money is considered compensation, and third, student-athletes are highly dependent on these scholarships for their food, living, and education. Even after realizing that a student-athlete falls under what the law defines as an employee, we can agree that any D1 student-athlete who works upwards of 40 hours a week to perform at a high level of competition for the universities benefit is essentially working a full time job on top of school work
These businesses are trained in what to look for in fake identification. They also deal with more people through their daily business than what a host of party would see. Since business see more people and unfamiliar people, unlike a host of a party, they need to be very consistent in asking for identification and making sure the identification is real. In addition, because they serve more people throughout their business day, they have the potential to supply a greater number of minor’s alcohol. This is why it is so important businesses and other establishments that serve alcohol need to be held to a higher standard and not be allowed exceptions to the law. If the identification is in question, it is better to refuse the sale and be safe, than sell to a minor which resulted in great bodily harm or death to themselves or
Nowadays, fake IDs are hardly used because many young adults at the age of 18 find a way to binge drink, which may cause them to become heavier drinkers by the time they are legal to drink. Alcohol is a is a beverage that is known as a drug and it depresses the CNS. Lowering the drinking age will cause this effect to take over young adults, and this is a huge factor in why the drinking age is now 21. After a couple drinks, many people will start to slur their speech, their motor ability slows down, and alcohol also causes blurry vision. We can sum up the reasons why the drinking age was raised to 21 because many people don’t really think when they are drunk on alcohol.
Liquor stores, bars, and clubs all want to make money, and if they can get away with selling to underage teens, then they will. A study done by the Academic Search Premier agrees that,?By now it is obvious that the law has not succeeded in preventing the under-21 group from drinking? Michael Smith - 1st place. There are a lot of benefits to having the drinking age change to eighteen. The amount of binge drinking would lessen, and the amount of outrage to drink would also decrease.
Lowering the drinking age to under 21 can cause young adults to be medically irresponsible. For example, young adults under 21 years old can violate properties or other valuable items that might cause them penalties because of underage drinking law. People at any age who has had alcohol and other drug problems often diagnosed with severe treatments and discrimination (Youth Facts). Youth Facts claims that people at any age have been determined with some type of treatment when they were overdosed with alcohol. In addition, drinking under the age of 21 can severely cause major health problems among themselves and to others.

Collegiate athletics in the United States, in particular N.C.A.A. (National Collegiate Athletic Association) Division I basketball and football, have become one of the most prominent forms of sports entertainment today. Like their professional counterparts, the economic stability of many university and college sports programs relies on the success of its teams. As a result, coaches and team officials have been subject to a great deal of criticism, as many have been using improper methods to recruit athletes for their teams. In the past half century, the NCAA, an amateur organization, has been no stranger to its share of corruption and scandal. The NCAA’s constitution states that “An amateur sportsman is one who engages in sports for the physical, mental or social benefits he derives therefrom, and to whom the sport is an avocation. Any college athlete who takes pay for participation in athletics does not meet this definition of amateurism.” (from In Praise of ‘Student-Athletes’: the NCAA is Haunted by its past, in The Chronicle of Higher Education, January 8 1999) In addition to athletic scholarships, statistics have shown that nearly 50% of college athletes have themselves - or know of - athletes who have received under-the-table-payments for their services. (from Unsportsmanlike Conduct: Exploiting College Athletes, page 63)
The Health and fitness industry have many ethical issues involved which was very interesting to me. I have never purchased a membership at a health club, but from the reading I learned a lot about how they operate. It amazed me that health clubs push their sales representatives to get 200-300 new members a month (Amend, 1992). This is a large amount of people for such a short amount a time, which means some members are not fully aware of the fine print of the membership agreement. Also the reading mentions that more than half of instructors at these clubs do not have valid certification (Copeland et al, 1988),. This is unethical because the members pay each month for the service of a qualified staff member to assist them in exercise and fitness. Safety of the members could also be at risk working out with a non-qualified trainer. Learning how these companies do business make me want to hold off as long as possible to join a gym.
It may seem unfair to many observers to allow 18-20 year olds to marry, to have children, to own cars, homes, pay taxes, vote, fly planes, risk their lives in the armed forces, own firearms and to be financially and socially independent, and yet to be legally prohibited from drinking a glass of wine in a restaurant, or even a glass of champagne at their own wedding. I think it is a problem to have a limit higher than the age of maturity. B. Teenagers look at drinks as glamorous. It is viewed as an adult activity and teenagers want to be adults ASAP. In order to get a drink, teenagers carry fake I.D. , creating more trouble, or sneaking drinks from their parents' liquor cabinet.
...d help the stores, and the local stores might just have a better chance of getting more money, but others think it would be a great idea. Underage drinking may cost problems, and way of having problems with family, friends, and school, but they are wrong. Drinking at a young age, may just make everything worst. There are many drinking the more emotions, and nothing good ever came out of it. It just may make you someone you never wanted to be. young adults underage drinking has caused most accidents. Young adults have been dying more and more since they’re taken advantage of it. the’re been getting in car crashes, and parents are being more protected, but young adult just don’t listen, and they never learn. some people want the age to be higher, not just 21. some say leave it the way it is. Adults of the age of 21 are mature and they understand what they are doing.
In the sports world, as much as in the political, social or corporate world, ethics is put to the test at all times. Most athletes spend their career trying to overcome many barriers in order to gain notoriety and achieve good results with the objective of winning titles and, especially, to have great future opportunities, as for example, being awarded with an athletic scholarship.
Growing up with an alcoholic is a powerful life lesson. Individuals learn valuable skills on how to behave around immature, intoxicated drunks and what to do to prevent mishaps. Unfortunately, all incidences are not stoppable; therefore, protecting oneself from the unexpected will benefit in the long run. Alcohol can and will increase mental impairment, so if legal to consume the product, people should wisely acknowledge how much they can handle at one sitting. Here in Indiana, state executives prohibit the sale or acquisition of alcoholic beverages unless a citizen is a certain age. Many human beings follow this strictly such as my family. At social gatherings on private property, I am still unable to ingest any liquor even though I am currently eighteen about to turn nineteen on February 25, 2015. The elders believe drinking under the age limit will influence me to indulge more and increase my chances of becoming addicted. Although given a small measurement will not harm myself, experienced family members are probably

Young people grow up seeing their parents and other adults make toast of wine and champagne at special occasions, as well as casually enjoying a few beers at a picnic. Today alcoholic beverages are frequently as common at business lunches as they are at college frat parties. Underage drinking is a huge problem which everyone must face. Underage drinking not only has devastating effects on those who drink but also on our society. "Young people illegally consume almost 3.6 billion drinks annually which is 10 million drinks each day."
