Binge drinking is news now in the UK. What nobody seems to realize is that sooner or later, it will translate into a lawsuit against a firm that encourages ill health by alcohol.

Many firms give employees a so-called perk of client entertainment, where the employee is encouraged to drink alcohol.

Many firms encourage a Friday night get-together in the pub. Many others have a monthly get-together where much alcohol is consumed.

Perhaps you work in such a firm yourself.
