Substance Abuse Awareness and Prevention for Executives, Supervisors and Employees

It's vital that management understand the magnitude of substance abuse in the workplace and know how to identify impaired or under-the-influence employees. Employers must be able to effectively manage potential incidents before they occur. Drug and alcohol abuse impacts safety, productivity and the cost of doing business.

According to a recent OSHA publication, 65% of workplace accidents are caused by substance abuse, and employees that abuse drugs file 6 times more workers' comp claims. Substance abusers use health benefits approximately 84% greater in dollar terms and they record 16 times more work absences according to the US Dept. of Labor.

Inneractions offers cost effective customized workshops designed to meet your organizational needs. All workshops are presented in an energetic, entertaining way that keeps the audience involved and interested.

Our experienced trainers will provide management and employees with an understanding of the scope of substance abuse in the workplace, review the common drugs of abuse including signs and symptoms of use, and strategies to prevent workplace substance abuse. Length: 2-4 Hours (Depending on your organization's needs.)
