The cases of intoxication are observed in and around campus and have become a huge HR problem due to:
1. Employees are coming on duty in intoxicated/drunken state or are found drunk/intoxicated while on duty.
2. Off duty employees tend to loiter in the campus in inebriated/drunken state.
3. Employee found instigating others for binge drinking sessions.
4. Written Warnings/Counseling by concerned Head of Departments/ Administration has got almost no effects on such workers.
5. The most of these repeat offenders are habitual drinkers and dependent and addicted to alcohol/drugs. These cases of are now getting epidemic and is having effect on other staff.
The only alternative now left is to initiate strict disciplinary action which may lead to termination of service. Although termination would be an easiest offer but keeping in mind the welfare of employees, some of whom have been in service for over 20 years the below is recommended as a more human alternative.
These stray instances have affected the working/morale of other workers and are tarnishing the image of company, therefore, the following measures are recommended:-
1. Employees covered under ESIC to be sent to ESI run De-addiction Centers.
2. Employees not covered under ESIC to be sent to Govt. run De-addiction Centers. The cost of treatment at these centers may be Recovered as Medical Expenses Re-Imbursement being paid to such employees.
3. Sending such employees to Rajyog Sadhana Kendra/Art of Living classes for FREE OFF CHARGE Drug/Alcohol addiction awareness camps.
