Hi List,
.I would appreciate some guidance on this scenario:
A manager finds an employee under the influence of alcohol. Some
of the employee’s tasks are safety critical. What should the manager do? What
can they do? What is within the legal framework? Without the use of a breathalyzer
how can the manager gather enough ( measurable)evidence to support their
decision to bar the employee from carrying out their job?
I am aware that this is a management issue; however in
devising the local Alcohol policy OH’s advice is being sought. Is there
anyone who is willing to share to their Alcohol policy that covers this aspect?
Thank you
N
