The Opioid Crisis and the Impact it has on Business, Community and Individuals

The cognitive, emotional, and behavioral impairment resulting from drug use can affect productivity, morale, and even the safety of other coworkers. The cost of addiction in the workforce is usually measured financially; however, the cost can also refer to more subjective losses that change the entire culture of a business.

The opioid crisis is hitting the our community quite hard. The implications are multi-faceted for employers including the challenge of finding drug free employees and ensuring a safe work environment for all. At this session you will learn about:

Awareness - How did this happen to our community and what is being done about it?
Treatment – Do you understand medicated assisted treatment and the road to recovery?
Employment law implications – Are you up to date on workplace substance abuse policies?
Employer best practices - What strategies and best practices are some companies adopting in response to this issue?

Join us for a real conversation with our region’s leaders on the opioid crisis at the St. Elizabeth Training and Education Center, 3861 Olympic Boulevard, Erlanger KY, 41018.
