Risk Reduction Manager Expectations
Risk Reduction Managers must not consume alcoholic beverages six (6) hours prior to the event, during the event, and for one (1) hour after the conclusion of the event to ensure that policies are being enforced and situations or incidents addressed responsibly. All Risk Reduction Managers should be members of the host organization. If an event is co-sponsored between two (2) organizations, both organizations should have Risk Reduction Managers present to ensure the safety of all guests present. Risk Reduction Managers have the important responsibility of helping to monitor events in order to provide a safe social environment. These responsibilities may include:
1. Checking identification cards and guests list upon entry to the event. There should be a system for identifying attendees who are over the legal drinking age.
2. Responding to crisis situations, including seeking assistance from Campus Life staff, Campus Police, or emergency personnel.
3. Responding to any disruptions that take place at the event. Risk Reduction Managers may ask guests to leave the event if they become too intoxicated and behave inappropriately.
4. Assisting in making arrangements for the safety of those who appear to be impaired.
