As a Sidekick working in Hospitality, you might be required to complete a Responsible Service of Alcohol course to work in specific roles.
In Australia, an RSA is required to work in any roles that require you to serve or work with alcohol.
How do I get a Responsible Service of Alcohol certificate?
If you do not have an RSA, you can complete one through Clear to Work. Ensure you select the correct state, and follow the steps to complete the required information.
If you are located in Victoria, you can find an accredited course HERE.
Please note that Sidekicker does not reimburse the cost of RSAs.
