Wild guess here - you're not a pilot.

There have been many cases where employers have failed in their duty of care when it comes to driving home after very long shifts. Which is why many employers have policies in place to ensure that local accommodation is available in such circumstances. Furthermore, once the policy is there, if the employee decides to not use it and then has an accident, the liability shifts on to the employee.
