194. Lifestyle-behavior issues...
In Michigan, workers don't have legal recourse if they're fired for lifestyle-behavior issues; 29 states have laws protecting workers in those circumstances, she said.

"This isn't an issue about smoking," Moss said. "This is an issue about private employers being able to punish employees for their legal, non-work-related activities."



Most likely the result of legislation passed with a Republican Governor... Anyone know for sure??

What will be next? Will they test workers at home to see if they have been drinking? Will they restrict the type of vehicles they can drive? Will they prohibit drinking coffee? Will they require them to attend church?
