Drug Abuse Monitoring & Drug Free Workplace Programs
The overall cost of drug and alcohol abuse in the workplace is staggering.
Did you know that….
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, approximately 68% of
persons abusing illegal drugs are either employed full or part time.
FACT: One out of 10 people in this country
have a problem with alcohol or substance abuse.
FACT: Workers who abuse drugs and/or alcohol
are significantly more likely to be less productive, have higher rates
of absenteeism, are more likely to injure themselves or somebody else
on the job, and are significantly more likely to file a worker’s
compensation claim.
FACT: Drug and alcohol abuse affects more than
the abuser and his/her family. Workplace stress increases as co-workers
compensate for the impaired employee(s).
FACT: The costs of having impaired employees
are spread throughout an organization by way of higher insurance premiums,
reduced salaried or benefit packages, and reduced profit margins.
