Download or read book Alcohol in Employment Settings written by D. Wayne Corneil and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is the first truly global exchange of ideas about Employee Assistance Programs--initiated by the D. Wayne Corneil, President of EASNA, the Employee Assistance Society of North America. Focusing on the impact of alcohol-related problems upon employment settings, experts from Germany, Australia, Switzerland, Canada, and Poland provide valuable insights into the current state of alcohol-related problems in their countries, attitudes toward alcohol, the effects of alcohol use on the workplace and society, and education and treatment programs that have proven successful with employees who need help. They also address other significant, often controversial issues--possible causes of increased alcohol consumption in various countries, functions of EAPs, and the efforts of WHO (World Health Organization) and the ILO (International Labour Organization) in combating the alcohol-related problems. Their fascinating examples of cultural attitudes about drinking and staggering statistics reflecting the universal nature of the problem of alcohol in the workplace illustrate precisely how alcohol-related problems disrupt the workplace worldwide and add billions of dollars annually to the costs of health care and goods and services. An important book for those who consult with employers and implement employee assistance programs, Alcohol in Employment Settings offers a unique view of how the economic, cultural, and social norms in other parts of the world--fundamentally different from those in North America--affect business operations, employment conditions, and the impact of employee assistance programs. A most timely and practical volume, Alcohol in Employment Settings is an important compilation of the results of a recent study of alcohol in the workplace conducted by the WHO and the ILO (International Labour Organization).

Download or read book Alcoholism and Drug Abuse in the Workplace written by Walter F. Scanlon and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1991-06-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deteriorating job performance resulting from alcohol and drug dependency requires special handling and specific skills. Developing these skills and learning what to do with them are not difficult tasks. Employee assistance program professionals provide such training for key personnel. Focusing on strategic intervention designed to help employees with personal problems that interfere with job performance, Walter Scanlon describes the functions and benefits of employee assistance programs (EAPs), discusses their training and consultation objectives, and shows how EAPs effectively identify and address such problems. An important EAP goal is to reduce both the incidence of alcohol- and drug-related problems and the costs associated with them. EAPs target employees whose work performance has deteriorated because of chemical dependency or other personal problems. Scanlon has divided his discussion of EAPs into seven workable segments: the concept of EAP; EAP history; the history of drug and alcohol use; current drug and alcohol use in the United States; the legal, corporate, societal, and individual influences on rehabilitation and EAP; governmental influences including the Drug Free Workplace Act and mandatory drug screening; and cost considerations, including the trend toward managed health care.
