The 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. It establishes an exemption for individuals whose names appear on the business entity's license, stating that they will not be required to obtain an employee license to work on the premises. Additionally, the bill clarifies that managers of mixed beverage licensees, public event licensees, or bottle clubs must still obtain an employee license regardless of their participation in the service or sale of mixed beverages.

Furthermore, the bill outlines the prerequisites for obtaining an employee license, including age requirements and the necessity of completing a training program approved by the ABLE Commission. It also mandates 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 act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
