INDIANAPOLIS- On June 2, 2009 at 7:45am Fairbanks will host an informative breakfast to business owners and managers to assist Indiana businesses in recognizing substance abuse warning signs in the workplace and offer assistance and solutions to these real problems.
Drug and alcohol problems in the workplace cost American employers billions of dollars each year. Identifying potential addiction issues early can save the lives, jobs, families and homes of employees.
Untreated substance abuse and addiction contributes to: lost productivity, health problems, absenteeism, accidents, legal issues and employee turnover. Research has shown that focusing on substance abuse and helping your employees find treatment can save your company $12 for every $1 that you invest.
In addition to monthly breakfasts, Fairbanks offers educational sessions to local businesses Monday-Friday upon request. If you are interested in attending a breakfast or having a speaker visit your office please call Jason Farris at 317-572-9418 or e-mail jfarris@fairbankscd.org.
