This bill amends Section 2-121 of the Oklahoma Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, specifically regarding employee licensing requirements for individuals working in establishments that sell alcoholic beverages. The amendment introduces an exemption stating that an individual whose name appears on the business entity's license is not required to obtain an employee license to work on the premises of that business. Additionally, it clarifies that if the ABLE Commission denies an application for an employee license, written notice must be provided to the applicant's employer at the same time it is given to the applicant.

The bill maintains existing requirements for employee licenses, including age restrictions and the necessity of completing a training program approved by the ABLE Commission. It also specifies that certain employees, such as those working in mixed beverage establishments or handling hotel mini-bar stock, must still obtain an employee license. The effective date for this legislation is set for November 1, 2025.
