Drug-Free Workplace

Are drug and alcohol abuse costing your company money?  Indeed, they are.

Drugs and Alcohol Abuse in the Workplace: The Bottom Line

  1. On average, employees with inappropriate substance use cost their employers $7,000-$25,000 annually
  2. Substance abusers are 33-50% less productive than non-users
  3. Abusers are absent 3 weeks more per year than non-abusers
  4. Substance users file 300-400% more costly medical claims
  5. 50-80% of pilferage, loss and theft are due to substance abusers
  6. Up to 70% of serious workplace accidents are related to alcohol and drug abuse

These startling statistics are why the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation offers significant discounts on premiums for the first 5 years of the program.

Everyone can benefit from a drug-free workplace

  • Businesses of all sizes
  • Companies wishing to reduce annual workers’ compensation premiums
  • Construction companies are required to have drug-free programs in order to get state contracts
  • Cities and other government entities
  • Companies with recent workers’ compensation claims and increased premiums
  • Companies wanting to reduce accidents, theft, use of sick time, mistakes, use of unnecessary medical care, absenteeism, and “presenteeism” (being present, but not doing any work!)
  • Companies wanting to increase worker productivity and employee health
  • Companies covered under U.S. Department of Transportation laws

The goal of drug-free workplace programs is to assist companies with establishing policies and training that results in a healthier, drug-free workforce. More productive and healthier employees ultimately better implement your company goals and strategies, improving your company’s bottom line.
