What Is Safe Harbor

Safe Harbor is relief offered by the Texas government to relieve a business when a person sells or serves alcohol to a minor or an intoxicated person. The TABC FAQs states:

We also will not take administrative action against a license/permit holder if an employee sells or serves an alcoholic beverage to a minor or intoxicated customer, as long as they meet all the following criteria:

  • The person selling is not the owner or an officer of the company.
  • The person selling holds a current seller/server training certificate from a TABC-approved school.
  • All employees as well as their immediate managers, who engaged in the sale, service, or delivery of alcohol, are TABC certified within 30 days of their hire date.
  • The employer has written policies for responsible alcohol service and ensures that each employee has read and understands these policies.
  • The employer does not directly or indirectly encourage the employee to violate the law.
  • There are not three or more of these types of violations in a 12-month period.

The full administrative rule can be found under Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code §106.14(a) and TABC Administrative Rules §34.4.
