If ownership of a company is considering firing an employee can management try & change there mind?

Question

Let's say it's because of a background or drug test? Can they give them a 2nd chance?

Answer 1

Is there a company policy around this situation that you would be violating?  If so, I strongly advise not going against it.  You could be putting the organization at risk.

If there is not a policy violation then it would be okay as long as the next person(s) in a similar position is afforded the same consideration and accommodation.

Answer 2

Anyone can ask.  That doesn't mean that the owner will change his/her mind.
