AWARD: Claim disposed of as follows: There is sufficient evidence

to support carrier's conclusion that claimant was guiltly as charged. However, the Board has been made aware that he has sought help regarding his alcohol problem, thus, in light of his remedial effort and his 12 years of discipline free service, we have determined that he should be afforded another opportunity to be a reliable employee. Therefore, claimant is to be restored to service but without compensation for time lost. This restoration is conditioned that he enroll and satisfactorily participates in the Carrier's Employee Counselling Service Program until released.
