Generally, licensees must not pay people to work at an FRE. However, in the following circumstances, licensees may compensate people:

(1) Licensees may allow people who are not members of the organization to perform incidental functions, which we will not consider "management or operation" under RCW 9.46.120. These incidental functions include:

(a) Serving food and drink to participants in the FRE; or

(b) Parking cars; or

(c) Maintaining general crowd control and order at the FRE; or

(d) Detecting people cheating, as long as that employee is a commissioned law enforcement officer with the power to make arrests in the jurisdiction in which the FRE is being held or is the employee of a commercial securities service firm licensed to provide these services by the city, town, or county in which the FRE is being conducted; or

(e) Providing janitorial functions; or

(f) Supervising these people, as long as the licensee does not pay these employees more than the local prevailing level of payment for supervising at events other than FREs.

(2) Licensees may also furnish food and nonalcoholic beverages to full and regular members who volunteer as long as the food or drink does not exceed twenty dollars per volunteer per FRE.

(3) If a licensee's employee is also a full and regular member of the organization or its auxiliary and is not scheduled for assigned employee duties at the time of the FRE, the employee may assist in the FRE.
