The Company Administrators Launch Quite A Few Programs To Help Decrease The Costs Associated With Employee Alcohol Abuse And Alcoholism, Increasing Absenteeism, Excessive Sick Days, Poor Employee Work Performance, And Work Related Injuries, And Diminish Employee Conflict And Depression
Warren is a fifty-three-year-old man who is the top administrator in the human resources department at a large metal finishing company. In order to cut the costs correlated with poor employee work performance, employee alcohol abuse and alcoholism, work related injuries, excessive sick days, and increasing absenteeism, Warren and the other members of top management initiated numerous programs that made the work atmosphere substantially more productive, healthy, and safe.
As an example, twelve years ago Warren and the other company leaders established an Employee’s Assistance Program so that all the workers had access to professional psychological counseling for their personal problems that could unfavorably affect their work performance, personal well being, and their health.
The Company Executives Construct a Modern Exercise and Workout Room Complete With a Personal Trainer During Business Hours, Scales, Weights, Exercise Charts, Exercise Equipment, and Mirrors
As another example, around seven-and-a-half years ago Warren and the other company leaders constructed a forward-looking workout and exercise room complete with a personal trainer during business hours, scales, weights, exercise charts, many different types of exercise equipment, and mirrors.
Furthermore, roughly three-and-a-half years ago Warren and the other members of upper management invested in a purification system that filters all the water that is accessible throughout the building. In much the same way, three years ago, Warren and the other members of upper management started a “walking club” that is principally intended for workers who want to further develop their cardiovascular system.
Top Management Starts a Weight-Watchers Class and Signs Up a Weight-Loss Trainer to Oversee the Program
As another example, roughly two years ago, Warren and the other company leaders sponsored a “Weight-Watchers” class that currently meets every Tuesday and Thursday at 4:30 PM until 5:50 PM. In addition, the VIPs employed a weight-loss healthcare professional to administer the program.
In a similar manner, a year-and-a-half ago Warren and the other company administrators launched a “Stop Smoking Club” for workers who want to learn how to quit smoking.
In the last six months, in conjunction with the Employee’s Assistance Program, Warren and the other company executives launched an “Anger Management” class for employees who want to learn how to better cope with their anger issues.
Upper Management Initiates a Drug and Alcohol Testing Program
In the last three-and-a-half months, Warren and the other VIPs instituted a alcohol and drug testing program that is related to their drug and alcohol abuse prevention program. In actual fact, Warren is the main person in the company responsible for getting the message out to all the workers about the drug and alcohol abuse prevention program as well as the drug and alcohol testing program.
One of the major elements of the drug and alcohol abuse prevention program is a class entitled “Alcoholism and Depression” that meets every Monday after work. The basic idea with this class is informing employees that abusive drinking and depression regularly take place in the same individual. It is hoped that knowing this information will be able to help an individual address both medical problems and get the alcohol rehabilitation and mental health counseling he or she needs.
Upper Management Launches an Alcohol Statistics and Facts Class
Another fairly recent enhancement to the drug and alcohol abuse prevention program is a class entitled “Alcohol Statistics and Facts.” The rationale behind this alcohol statistics facts class is the reality that many individuals are unsuccessful in their attempt to grasp the total impact of the effects of alcohol dependency and alcohol abuse without first getting exposed to some of the alcohol dependency and alcohol abuse facts and statistics that are available. Consequently, one of the objectives of this class is to provide a range of alcohol addiction and alcohol abuse statistics and facts to help workers gain a better realization of the multitude of problems that are linked to excessive and hazardous drinking and how they can stop these issues from taking place.
Most recently, Warren and the other members of top management, through observations from employees, developed a class that focuses directly on acute drinking entitled “What is Alcoholism”? This class meets every Thursday morning an hour-and-a-half before work and focuses largely on the differences between alcohol abuse and alcohol dependency, on the stages of alcoholism, and on the kinds of rehabilitation that are available for people who have alcohol drinking problems such as individuals who drink in an irresponsible manner.
Even though every one of these health and preventative maintenance programs was anything but inexpensive, the company administrators think that they are many thousands of dollars ahead by providing all of their workers with a healthy, safe, and more productive work atmosphere.
