When their alcoholism goes【B5】______, it costs a bundle. Problem drinkers don’t 【B6】______their weight in the office, are often chronically late or absent, and file $4,600 more in health claims a year than other employees. Their families’ doctor【B7】______are much higher, too. Meanwhile, the company pays full salary and benefits for an employee who is fully【B8】______only some of the time.
