ONLINE COURSE: A Dose of Reality for Employers - A toolkit to help mitigate the risks associated with Ohio’s Opioid crisis.
This 8-module course gives an overview of the legal and operational issues an employer must consider in dealing with an employee’s use of opioids and other substances. In May 2021, we added 3 new modules that focusing on employee recovery. The modules include best practices around how, when and why to drug test; how to handle a situation if the employee confesses or is discovered to be using harmful substances; and much more. Although each module contains valuable information, it is not necessary that they be watched in order or in their entirety.
