Look out for these changes in behaviour. Any one of them could signal that someone is becoming intoxicated – and that means you need to take action:  

  • A noticeable change in behaviour
  • Becoming loud and boisterous, using offensive language suddenly, slurring or tripping over words, sudden mood switch to bad-tempered or aggressive
  • Lack of judgement
  • Being careless with money, buying drinks for strangers, complaining about the strength of drinks, and annoying other customers
  • Clumsiness
  • Spilling drinks, having difficulty picking up change or trouble removing articles from purse or wallet
  • Loss of coordination
  • Swaying and staggering, having difficulty in walking straight, bumping into furniture and other customers
  • Decreased alertness
  • Delays in responding to questions, drowsiness, not hearing or understanding others, asleep in the bar.
