Outpatient Alcohol Rehab
Do I have recourse? unfair dismissal?
My history of work here has been impeccable up to this. I put myself in a drug / alcohol rehabilitation. My employer did not fire at the time, but when I returned to work, mandate an AA meeting every day, (I did) random testing (always clean) and forced me to do some outpatient my own money. I could not do the consultation and told them on several occasions when the time came I got fired. Great, you must be a lawyer! here is some of what I found. It is very possible that I am protected by the ADA. Then find two points that may support only 1 – Reasonable accommodation (the $ amount required to satisfy this constraint = 30% of net income. So the question is, was this reasonable request by the employer? 2 – imposed unnecessary difficulty (This will for the employer, does this cause the company undue hardship to pay or ambulatory patients themselves or completely remove all evidence after clean and meetings daily) Well there it is. Thoughts …
In the U.S., unless it is in MT, employment is at will. In the absence of union protection or a convention barganing collective agreement or employment contract, he can be fired for any reason, except a violation EEOC (A wrong "reason"). … So what was "Illegal?" Quick tip? You do not tell the guy signing your check what circumstances should or should not do unless you're trying to get canned.
