This is all about future savings now by either weeding out those employees or getting them into a shape that is acceptable. Not to make it sound all conspiracy theory-ish, but that is my take on it.

Well insurance companies used to do similar things with pre-existing conditions. You've got high risk? We'll deny you or jack up your rates. Obama care has limited that quite a bit actually. My friend who had a double lung transplant from cystic fibrosis can actually get insurance now. Strikes me as odd they are doing it in this line of work and can get away with it.
