Louisiana Security Guard Board Practice Exam

The role of a security guard at a licensed establishment includes enforcing the rules of the establishment. One of these rules is not allowing obviously intoxicated persons to enter. This is important for the safety and enjoyment of other patrons, and can also help prevent potential legal issues related to serving alcohol to an already intoxicated individual. Therefore, the correct course of action for the security guard in this scenario would be to refuse entry to the intoxicated person. It is not within the guard's responsibilities or legal rights to arrest or physically restrain the person, unless they are posing an immediate danger to others. Similarly, allowing the person to enter and then monitoring their behavior does not address the core issue, and could potentially lead to more problems down the line.
