Employee Education
It is essential that full and thorough training, education and communication of a company substance misuse policy (drug and alcohol policy) be undertaken for all employees before introduction/change, especially if testing is included. The communication to all employees of a change in policy is a legal requirement.
Established employee consultation vehicles such as Trade Unions are more supportive of the implementation of a policy if undertaken alongside a training and education programme.
Several cost effective proven communication tools will help in securing understanding and acceptance by the workforce whilst at the same time conveying the aims of the policy:-
- Poster campaigns
- Awareness pamphlets
- Information stands
- Employee briefing presentations
All materials can include company logos if desired.
