FROM THE WEB: RELATED INFORMATION: You can overcome all of these by following specific separation processes. Or, if the jobholder came in high from improper drug use, you should bring witnesses who can testify to his erratic behavior and physical characteristics (like bloodshot eyes or smelled like pot smoke). You must consider hiring a private investigator when the individual accused of overwhelming misbehavior is either a whistle-blower or a member of upper management. Unfortunately, there are times when you should go about terminating a disabled employee for reasons other than their disability.
