I have an employee who misses half of her scheduled shifts. Claims she is always sick. When at work is amazing. But too hard on the rest of the staff never knowing when she is coming in. We see on her the social media that she is fine and drinks too much alcohol and smokes marijuana. She didn’t show up to a scheduled shift and didn’t explain. So we didn’t message her.
How long before I can terminate her without an issue with her?

My name is Lumi Pungea and I am an employment lawyer. I encourage you to contact me at the number below to discuss the matter further and review the options available to you. It is risky to end the employment of someone who misses time from work due to alleged medical reasons so let’s discuss before you make a final decision.
