Employee Terminated for Failing to Report Drug-Related Arrest and a Conviction

A Chef in the Ops Transportation Department based in New York City was terminated on December 28, 2021, after an administrative hearing. The former employee failed to report two drug-related arrests and one drug-related conviction to the company. Company policy requires employees to notify the company as soon as practicable after an arrest, or within 48 hours after the arrest. The employee was also untruthful with us when asked about the arrests during our investigation.
