[QUOTE="lynx000, post: 2911915, member: 2065"] Thank you for the reply. So, if the employer does none of those things, that is, uses it's large public profile to try and do some public good and public education via various programs, it would be okay for someone like Lodge to be still employed? You also on another level, have no issue with an employer simply blocking an individual from pursuing employment in their chosen field and more than that, proffering no assistance to the individual in their attempts at rehabilitation (particularly after they have shown some level of commitment by (a) not touching alcohol for over 800 days or whatever the figure is; (b) fully participating in their community service obligations in two countries; and (c) voluntarily participating in programs to educate young people against making the same mistakes that the individual has made. I would have thought that where an individual has already demonstrated that level of commitment to their rehabilitation, that there is in fact a moral obligation on an employer who markets itself as having a strict moral code to support such a person in their rehabilitative endeavours. My issue with all of this is when is punishment enough. He did something really, really stupid under the influence of alcohol and drugs. He has been charged and dealt with by the Courts and fully complied with his sentence and what was required of him. He has performed his community service both in the USA and here. He has been of good behaviour since then and has taken extra steps to provide some payment back to the community. He has also been prevented from playing at NRL level for 2 years, at a cost to him of anywhere between $200,000.00 to potentially $600,000.00. When has he been punished enough? [/QUOTE]
