Course Description

Organizational leaders have compelling reasons to enforce their company’s drug and alcohol policies, but they must first provide training for their supervisors to help them
understand the complexities of enforcement.

• Describe the most common signs or symptoms displayed by an employee who is under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
  
• Define the steps to follow leading up to a decision to have the employee take a reasonable suspicion test.
  
• Describe how the Employee Assistance Program can be utilized in resolving a work performance problem when the cause of the problem is not readily identifiable to the supervisor.
