Executive intervention can provide a solution…

If you have a valued employee or colleague who is abusing alcohol and/or drugs, the time to act is now. The cost to your business can be enormous.

FACTS

· Substance abuse costs American businesses over $100 billion each year and represents:

50% of all absenteeism
36% of employee theft
34% of manufacturing defects
50% of loss productivity

· Employees who use alcohol and/or drugs are more likely to be injured on the job or can be the cause of workplace violence.

· Replacing employees is very expensive. Some estimates are more than $7,000 for a salaried worker, more than $10,000 for a mid-level employee and more than $40,000 for a senior executive.

Studies conclude that when airline pilots had to perform routine tasks in a simulator under alcohol test conditions:

· Before the ingestion of any alcohol, 10% of them could not perform all of the operations correctly.

· After reaching a blood alcohol concentration of 0.10/100ml, 89 % could not perform all of the operations correctly.

· Fourteen hours later after all the alcohol had left their systems, 68% could not perform all the operations correctly.


Don't allow your business or employee to suffer.
An intervention is a better choice!
