Hello, I work in the unionized processing food plant. In our drug and alcohol policy, the employer has the right to request a drug testing if reasonable grounds to believe that an employee is working under the influence. Following the drug testing, if the result is positive, a substance abuse expert will assess the worker in order to identify if he is a recreational or a dependent user. In a case of a recreational user, discipline will be applied. Can we set a minimum of 3-days of suspension for the first offense and maybe more, depending on the aggravating factors? How do you handle recreational users in terms of disciplinary approaches in your facility? Thank you!
