Drug and Alcohol Abuse for Employees in Construction Environments

In the United States, there are over 38 million binge drinkers, almost 25 million illegal drug users and more than 6 million people who abuse prescription drugs... and most of them have jobs. Substance abuse directly affects a construction worker's personality, health and ability to function safely on a worksite. It can also decrease productivity, create a hostile work environment and damage their company's reputation.

• How people get "hooked".
• Drug dependency.
• Becoming a substance abuser.
• Alcohol and drug policies.
