Good afternoon List Does anyone have an appropriate Alcohol Policy that I can take a look at. We are currently looking to change our policy , specifically looking at what point people should request help for a dependency issue. There seems to be two train of thoughts and we are going round in circles at the moment. 1. Employees may request OH support and rehabilitation on admission of dependency 'after' they have tested positive during screening for due cause. 2. Employees may only request rehabilitation support if a dependency/health issue is declared prior to any due cause screening. The company is keen to support people but we have serious concerns about employees who know they have a problem and don't declare it until they are caught which may mean they have worked for months or years in some cases while having dependency issues. I would be really interested to gain people's opinions and views on this, but more than anything would like some evidence to take back to our unions. It's also important to note that I work in the heavy engineering industry and the work in each department is deemed to be safety critical. Thanks in anticipation.
