Fired for smoking?
Feb 24th, 2005 by colin
From the alerts of the Drug Policy Alliance:
Earlier this year, a Michigan health care company fired four employees for refusing to take a test to determine whether they smoked cigarettes. The company, Weyco Inc., adopted a policy that allows them to fire employees who smoke, even if the smoking happens after business hours, away from the office.
So… what’s the next lifestyle choice that companies will have oversight into? Will people start getting fired for not watching enough TV, or perhaps being vegetarian?
