| Abstract: | A new ILO research estimates that 50 million individuals worldwide are drug dependent. After cancer and heart disease, alcoholism is the third leading cause of death. A study sponsored by the Ministry of welfare in 1989 in 33 cities reported that the age group of 16-35 was worst affected, most respondents were aware of the ill effects of drugs on health and there has been a rapid growth of drug abusers in industrial areas. Industrial workers have been identified as a vulnerable group in numerous studies on alcoholism and drug misuse that have been carried out in different regions of the world. More than 60% of drug users and around 75% of those with alcohol-related issues are said to be employed. Alcohol and drug use at work hinder an employee's ability to function efficiently and safely while carrying out their duties. According to studies on the human and financial implications of drug addiction, chemical abuse has significant direct and indirect costs for businesses. Reduced productivity, absenteeism, workplace accidents, increased medical expenses, the loss of qualified staff, the waste of skilled labour, strained labour relations, theft, and expenses related to preventive, treatment, and deterrence programmes are a few of these. Substance abusers have a two-fold increase in absenteeism compared to other employees. Between 20 and 25 percent of workplace accidents include drunk people hurting both themselves and uninvolved others. Employees with chemical dependency may claim three times as many sickness benefits and five times as many compensation claims. In addition to true chemical dependence, problems can also result from occasional or moderate users, who, due to their greater numbers, are more likely to consume substances to which they are not normally tolerant. Noting that substance use can range from recreational to frequent to problematic, despite the fact that it is frequently thought of as an addiction or dependence. There are thus various effects on people's lives and jobs. Years of casual use of a chemical without progressing to dangerous usage, being at different positions on the spectrum at different periods, etc. are all possibilities. |
