Is Alcohol Causing your Business a Headache?

It’s Alcohol Awareness week from the 1st – 7th July 2024, and with the BPIF HR team continuing to receive enquiries relating to alcohol in the workplace, it’s a great time to follow up with your teams to ensure they understand the details of your policy.  The BPIF HR team are currently receiving heightened enquiries concerning employee behaviour as a result of consuming alcohol before attending work, whilst at work, or attending corporate or social events. 

See here some useful top tips that could help you to manage any issues that may arise.

If you do not already have company policies that will help you to prevent any alcohol-related problems arising – you can download our ‘policies on alcohol and drug misuse and testing’ template from the BPIF website.  We can also support you, with additional guidance on conducting drug and alcohol testing on employees and how to ensure acceptable conduct. Contact our HR Business Partners for further information:
