The Drug and Alcohol Abuse Policy is the guiding document in terms of when subsequent alcohol use . Since alcohol use is legal, the sections of the policy that apply to violations after treatment are below:
It is an absolute violation of Company policy for any employee:
• To be involved in the use or possession of alcohol on Company property .
• To be involved in the use of alcohol off Company premises that the Company determines may affect the employee's work performance, his/her own or others' workplace safety, or otherwise adversely affect the business . • To be "under the influence" due to the use of alcohol on Company property, in Company supplied vehicles, or during working hours. If an employee is discovered with possession of alcohol on Company property, this fact should be documented and the employee should be terminated. If an employee is believed to be under the influence of a substance while at work, management should document any behaviors or physical characteristics on the Reasonable Suspicion Observations Form and take the employee for reasonable suspicion drug and alcohol testing. If an employee tests positive for alcohol, the employee should be terminated for violation of our drug and alcohol policy – usually because of concerns around the employee’s work performance or concerns for the employee and co-workers’ safety. NOTE: If a bakery has an employee where management believes an exception to these procedures should be made (such as where a long-term employee with no history of performance problems is discovered in violation of the alcohol portions of the policy), please call corporate HR to discuss the feasibility of entering into a Last Chance Agreement with this employee.
