Abstract

Workplace policies are important because employee rates of alcohol and drug misuse can be associated with work-related risk factors in the United States. To explore the associations, this study analyzed the 2010–2014 National Survey on Drug Use and Health datasets. The overall sample size was 130,726, and the SUD outcome variables included alcohol, marijuana, pain reliever, and illicit drug use disorders. 20% of participants reported no substance use policies in their workplace. Significant associations were identified between all four measured SUD outcome variables, the presence of specific substance use workplace policies, and individual employment sectors. Specifically, comprehensive policies out of six policies were significantly associated with decreased SUDs in nearly every employment sector. The results of this study suggest that workplace substance use policies are important to prevent the development of employee SUDs and comprehensive policies in place can be most effective.
美国防止药物滥用的工作场所环境:工作场所政策与员工药物使用障碍之间的关联
工作场所政策很重要,因为在美国,员工酗酒和吸毒的比率可能与工作相关的风险因素有关。为了探索这些关联,本研究分析了2010-2014年全国药物使用和健康调查数据集。总体样本量为130726,SUD结果变量包括酒精、大麻、止痛药和非法药物使用障碍。20%的参与者报告他们的工作场所没有物质使用政策。在所有四个测量的SUD结果变量、特定物质使用工作场所政策的存在和个人就业部门之间都发现了显著的关联。具体而言,六项政策中的综合政策与几乎每个就业部门的SUD下降都有显著关联。这项研究的结果表明,工作场所的药物使用政策对防止员工SUD的发展很重要,制定全面的政策可能是最有效的。
