ALCOHOL & SUBSTANCE MISUSE
Alcohol is the most commonly abused substance, and the majority of people with a drinking problem are in the workplace.
This standard focuses on areas such as:-
- The workplace has a policy or statement on alcohol and substance misuse, together with health information for employees and workers. This information includes the overlap with mental health and emotional wellbeing
- The workplace supports staff that are seeking help to assess or treat alcohol or substance misuse. This includes sources of further information and support that are readily available
- New employees and workers are made aware of how to access relevant policies, information and support services at the point of induction
- Staff have access to alcohol and drug awareness sessions.
