The driver's actions amounted to serious misconduct, but her drinking was the result of a disability — alcoholism — and trucking company Groupe Robert should have made a reasonable accommodation for her, labour arbitrator Huguette April said in her written July 18 decision.
Groupe Robert fired the driver after she was involved in a single-vehicle crash shortly before midnight on June 30, 2022. The driver told her employer about her drinking problem about a week after the crash, one day after she sought medical help to stop drinking. She was officially fired Aug. 31, after she had completed an in-patient addiction treatment program.
The driver told the arbitrator the company could have installed an alcohol testing device in her truck after the crash, or found other work for her.
