We have had a couple of employees with substance abuse issues and one of them would take a year off to rehab, come back for 6 months then fall back and the cycle continued three times before the company could let go of him in a 3 strikes you are out thing but it took years. Heck a lot of companies are scared to fire people even when they are terrible employees usually waiting for an excuse to lay off instead. It seems larger companies are petrified of the thought of getting sued.
