It would allow intoxicated workers to operate large moving


Richard White worked as a forklift operator in a warehouse belonging to Home Furnishings, Inc, for nine years without incident. One night, he arrived at work intoxicated, in violation of company rules. These rules also allowed Home Furnishings to discharge employees who were intoxicated and thus unfit for work. White was therefore fired. Under a contract with White’s union, the discharge was submitted to arbitration. The arbitrators ordered Home Furnishings to reinstate White. Home Furnishings filed a suit against the union, challenging the award as contrary to public policy because it would allow intoxicated workers to operate large moving equipment, putting other warehouse employees at risk. Can a court set aside this arbitration award? Explain.
