It is no secret that today there are more substances of abuse readily available around the country. Because of the availability and the culture helping to create an epidemic that is sweeping the nation, it is so important for every business to protect themselves, their employees, their reputation, public trust and all the other factors that can contribute to a business’s success or failure.

DDS has become the guiding light to companies across the country who want and need to address the issue of implementing a comprehensive Drug and Alcohol-free workplace. We help employers accomplish this through:

• Education
• Awareness
• Policy Development
• Implementation
• Maintenance

If there is a little voice in the back of your head questioning the morality, grievances, overreaction, investment or legal liability claims as a reason not to implement a comprehensive program … Let me ask you this … Would you want to work next to, or count on a coworker who was under the influence of an illegal or addictive substance or alcohol? You might say “what they do is none of my business because it doesn’t affect me”, but you would be wrong! Their probable sub-par performance and abnormal characteristics and behavior could not only be mentally and physically detrimental to them, but could directly, or indirectly affect you and any other coworker in an adverse way.

Now, if that little voice realizes the consequences of this type of situation could affect the otherwise positive environment and culture you have developed; don’t you think that others in your organization feel the same way?

Because employees are the backbone of every strong business, don’t employers deserve the best representation they can get?
