About The Event
Presentation: The Challenge of Substance Abusers - Managing Behavioral Problems in the Workplace
A recent study finds high rates of combined opioids and methamphetamine use in Oregon. The state’s legalization of marijuana has created a cannabis culture that has employers rethinking their substance abuse policies.
Employers are responsible for providing a safe workplace for all employees. This 90-minute training will assist supervisors in recognizing their responsibility to identify and correct unsafe actions that could be a result of substance use on the part of the employees they supervise.
