Therefore, Vishpro Logistics Limited will take it upon itself to counsel such employee and render any relevant help that we can to enable the employee overcome the problem. Ultimately, our aim is to ensure that no one becomes a hazard to another in the course of our operation.
• Using drugs and alcohol in offices and all operational areas is considered a health hazard to other staff members and operations. To this end, drugs and alcohol in all operational areas is prohibited.
• Employees who are dependent upon alcohol; or drugs are encouraged to seek medical advice, and to follow appropriate treatment promptly. Dependence would lead to termination of the party involved.
