Hi, I currently have an employee that has crashed his own vehicle under the influence of alcohol and caused damages to 10 council property railings, it has been nearly eight months now and he still has not been to court or had any correspondence, which we are very surprised about, he has given blood and was twice the legal limit and failed breath test which was taken in hospital, he also left the incident, this situation has left our company struggling as he is not currently driving which is part of his role but technically he has not been convicted?We have stopped him using company vehicles for insurance reasons.
The employee has chosen to ignore the situation and not contact the courts or police and we do not have the rite as an employer to do so. Does this sound normal to take so long to be convicted?
The employee seems to think that the courts have left it too long now to convict him and he is now free to carry on.
Please help answer this ?
Kind regards.
