Drug Abuse in the Workplace

  • The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that drug use in the workplace costs employers approximately $81 billion annually in lost time, accidents, health care and workers' compensation costs.
  • Substance abusers are six times more likely than their co-workers to file a worker's compensation claim.
  • 60% of employed drug users work for smaller companies.
  • 30% of drug abuse in the workplace involves prescription drugs.

More and more companies are addressing this problem by implementing a drug-free workplace program, consisting of drug education and training for workers and supervisors as well as employee assistance for those already involved with substance abuse.

The Narconon® program can help in both of these areas as they provide effective drug awareness and training seminars as well as one of the world's largest and most successful rehabilitation programs.

Does your kids school teach drug education?

Is your kid getting the proper drug education or drug education at all from school?

This is very important to know since kids can get drugs right out of their own classroom. With this going on right in front of their eyes and kids encouraging one another to try and use drugs, it makes it all seem o.k.

Don't leave it up to the schools to teach your kids about drugs. Kids will let your child think that drugs are o.k. before the school gets to tell them that drugs are bad.

Show your kid the real truth about drugs right at home.

Narconon First Step Withdrawal

Signs of Drug Use

There are warning signs when a child is using drugs. Parents should differentiate between his child's usual way of handling and reacting to life and those symptoms brought about by the use of drugs. A child on drugs can exhibit the following types of behavior:

Becoming withdrawn, depressed, tired or careless about personal grooming

Becoming hostile or uncooperative, and frequently breaking curfews

Relationships with family members deteriorating

Hanging around with a new group of friends

Allowing grades and school attendance to slip

Losing interest in hobbies, sports and favorite activities

Changing eating and sleeping patterns

Having a hard time concentrating

Having red-rimmed eyes and a runny nose- without having an allergy or cold

Stealing and lying

These symptoms may stem from other causes, but drug use should be suspected.


This information was taken from the booklet "Drug Facts".

For more information about drug use, the harmful effects of the different drugs and their street names and vital information for parents and much more, please visit www.about-drugs.org and check out the booklet "Drug Facts.

Narconon books and videos

The Narconon First Step program has been a great success in helping people get off drugs. If a person can't make it into the program for whatever reason, then the Narconon First Step program can be done in the privacy of your own home. The Narconon First Step program # 2 manual is for people who have completed the Narconon First Step program # 1 manual to help them continue to stay off drugs. Very effective.

The Truth About Drugs DVD is excellent for teaching kids the truth about drugs. It communicates in a way where kids will listen to the message: Don't Use Drugs. There is also useful information for parents such as why kids take drugs, what are signs and symptoms of drug use, how parents can help and much more.
