Drug and Alcohol Abuse Managers Training Video Program Kit

Alcohol abuse and the use of illegal drugs has become a major problem in the workplace. Substance abuse can not only hinder an employee’s ability to perform their job duties safely, accurately and efficiently, but can lead to serious consequences. According to the Department of Labor, nearly three quarters of those who use illegal drugs also work and one in every ten people in the U.S. has an alcohol problem.

When people who abuse drugs and alcohol come to work, they bring with them their substance abuse problems. This is an accident waiting to happen. Often they even engage in the use of various substances while at work or during lunch or other breaks. Alcohol and drug abuse affects not only the employee but everyone around them. Workplace drug and alcohol abuse is a very serious problem for everyone.

In today’s world, being a manager or supervisor can sometimes be stressful and difficult.  You must balance your responsibilities to the organization for which you work and the employees you supervise. Additionally, you must make sure the workplace is safe for all by helping create, implement and enforce safety rules and procedures.

An area where this balancing act has become increasingly important involves the use of drugs and alcohol by employees. Substance abuse has become a serious problem not only affecting the workplace, but the whole fabric of the organization. Substance abuse can hinder an employee’s ability to perform their job duties safely, accurately and efficiently. When drug or alcohol use impacts job performance, it becomes a supervisory concern with possible consequences for everyone in the workplace.
