I disagree. I wouldn't think that the company would have a legal leg to stand on. I have at least a beer or two every day when I'm off and what one does on their own time is their business.
Besides, to determine if one needs counseling requires more than that, like DUI's, showing up for duty while under the influence, volunteering yourself etc..
I do agree that not answering is the simplest way to avoid JA, but answering with the beer thing would be more fun!
