Why use Drug and Alcohol Testing?
From opioids to alcohol to recreational drugs, impairment is a serious issue facing today’s workplace. In fact, according to the National Safety Council, 75% of adults with a substance use disorder are in the workforce. Furthermore, over 72,000 people died of a drug overdose in 2019, and over 50,000 of those deaths involved opioids. In Canada, opioid pain relievers are used by 11.8% of the population, and hospitalizations due to opioid poisoning have been increasing (Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction).
Needless to say, employers play an important role in the reduction of risks associated with drug and alcohol abuse and impairment. Taking a proactive approach is essential in preventing misuse and offering support to employees seeking treatment and recovery. SureHire’s drug and alcohol testing services help you manage the risk of workplace substance abuse, incidents, and costly WCB claims, and the successful rehabilitation of employees in need of drug and alcohol support programs.
