2. Reduces stress.
3. Leads to more honest communication.
4. Reduces complaints about low pay.
5. Cuts down on time off because you can work with a hangover.
6. Employees tell management what they think, not what management want to hear.
7. Helps save on heating costs because people would rather come to work.

Nice one, Ysh! :D

May I add:

25. No need to regularly clean the comfort rooms. --- Alcohol sure can dispose off the effects of methane and ammonia. :D
