In Arkansas, the regulation of tobacco sales involves meticulous procedures to ensure that tobacco products are not sold to minors. Central to these procedures is the Arkansas Tobacco Control's ATC R4 form, a crucial document designed to promote awareness among employees about the legal stipulations surrounding the sale of tobacco. Located in Little Rock, under the guidance of the Arkansas Tobacco Control Board, this form mandates that each employee, upon employment and before engaging in the sale of any tobacco products, must thoroughly read, initial each section, sign, and date the document. The form serves multiple purposes: it delineates the prohibitions set forth for employees working at permitted outlets, including the sale of tobacco to individuals under 18 and selling products in quantities less than a full pack. It also underscores the consequences of violating these regulations, such as potential criminal charges and fines, and reinforces the establishment's vulnerability to inspection by the Arkansas Tobacco Control to ensure compliance with state laws. With areas for employee acknowledgment and management approval, the ATC R4 form acts as both a preventive measure against unlawful tobacco sales and a testament to the employee's commitment to comply with Arkansas's tobacco control laws.
