"The goal of the project was to develop models of successful small enterprise prevention and assistance programmes that could be replicated ... worldwide. The pilot project was implemented in five countries: Egyp, India, Malaysia, South Africa and Zimbabwe. This manual is a product of the project and is based on the findings and lessons learned from the experience of the five participating countries and, in particular, on a workplace substance abuse prevention training module developed in South Africa for use by the ILO's Start and Improve Your Business (SIYB) project. It provides background information and a step-by-step guide for developing small business substance abuse prevention initiatives."--Preface.

Abuse of drugs and alcohol may cause serious difficulties at work including deterioration in job performance. Abuse is caused by a range of personal, family, social or work situations or a combination of such factors. This report presents a variety of multidisciplinary approaches to the prevention, assistance, treatment and rehabilitation of alcohol- and drug-related problems in the workplace. Although experience has shown the difficulty of eliminating substance abuse, the policies presented are likely to yield constructive results for workers and employers alike.

All across the United States, individuals, families, communities, and health care systems are struggling to cope with substance use, misuse, and substance use disorders. Substance misuse and substance use disorders have devastating effects, disrupt the future plans of too many young people, and all too often, end lives prematurely and tragically. Substance misuse is a major public health challenge and a priority for our nation to address. The effects of substance use are cumulative and costly for our society, placing burdens on workplaces, the health care system, families, states, and communities. The Report discusses opportunities to bring substance use disorder treatment and mainstream health care systems into alignment so that they can address a person's overall health, rather than a substance misuse or a physical health condition alone or in isolation. It also provides suggestions and recommendations for action that everyone-individuals, families, community leaders, law enforcement, health care professionals, policymakers, and researchers-can take to prevent substance misuse and reduce its consequences.

The bad news is that substance abuse today costs the average American business more than 25 percent of annual profits through added health care and compensation expenses, poor productivity, liability, theft, and impaired decision making. The good news is that substance abuse represents your largest, single, changeable operating cost. Eliminate it from your workplace, and both profits and productivity are certain to increase dramatically. Here's a timely, much-needed book that offers legally sound, clinically-based guidelines for setting up a comprehensive identification and intervention program to deal with drug and alcohol problems at your company. Written by two of America's leading experts in the field of substance abuse, Creating and Maintaining the Drug-Free Work force features a proven "win-win" approach that has been shown capable of motivating even the most troubled employees to get clean and stay clean. You'll learn the legal grounds for employer intervention, as defined by current federal and state laws and regulations; telltale signs that indicate a particular employee may be abusing alcohol or drugs; the pros and cons of conducting pre-employment for-cause, post-accident, random, or re-entry drug testing; how to intervene successfully when you lack hard evidence of substance abuse (early intervention) and the different methods to use when you have proof that a problem exists (late intervention); what you need to know up-front about the "addiction syndrome" - a pattern of denial, deceit, and dependency that is common to all substance abusers; how to use education and supervisor training to raise employee awareness and prevent future problems from arising; when, where, and how to utilize outside counselors, treatment providers, and self-help recovery programs, with an in-depth analysis that compares all of these various options; how to supervise re-entry, establish a companywide support system, and prevent relapses from occurring; and much more!
