Employee drug and alcohol issues raise vexing questions for employers:
- When is it okay to discipline an employee for attendance or performance issues that the employer suspects may be related to drugs or alcohol?
- When are drug or alcohol issues a covered "disability" under the Americans with Disabilities Act?
- If the employer suspects a drug or alcohol problem, should the employer approach the employee about a reasonable accommodation or wait for the employee to come forward?
- What types of accommodations could employers be obligated to provide?
- To what extent can employees take protected leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act?
Join us for the answers to these questions and discussion of best practices for implementing and enforcing workplace drug and alcohol policies.
