Most drug users are employed, and when they arrive for work, they don’t leave their problems at the
door. Some costs - increased absences, accidents and errors - are obvious. Others, such as low morale
and high illness rates, are less so, but their effects may be equally harmful. The U.S. Department of
Labor’s Working Partners for an Alcohol- and Drug-Free Workplace Web site, located at
www.dol.gov/workingpartners, helps employers protect their businesses from these negative effects by
establishing drug-free workplace programs that protect worker safety and health and improve
productivity and bottom-line profits. Web site features include ready-to-use training materials and an
interactive tool that helps employers develop a drug-free workplace policy from start to finish.
