(Health-NewsWire.Net, December 24, 2015 ) Columbus, OH -- Opiate addiction's dominion does not only affect those suffering with substance use disorders at home, but is now invading the workplace, according to CNBC. In a recent study it is suspected 80 percent of the nation's workforce has an opiate substance use disorder. Drug and Alcohol Rehab Columbus is a detoxification and rehabilitation center bent of successfully helping clients to triumph over addiction. The facility urges companies to develop drug policies and couple them with resources to help those who are addicted pay for rehabilitation treatment- while ensuring job security.
Currently if an employee is prescribed an opiate based painkiller the cost of worker's compensation is boosted four times their initial rate. CNBS cites "25 percent of all prescription costs in workers comp are opiate painkillers."
An associate from Drug and Alcohol Rehab Columbus comments, "If we bury our heads in the sand in the face of an epidemic that is literally being introduced in all environments of our society, we will remain powerless to help those afflicted by the disease, and prevent subsequent victims. Establishing a clear-cut drug policy for businesses should be included in every business plan or set of protocols. Addiction strikes everywhere, and neglecting, or simply letting go of addicted employees will not help the problem, and will ultimately make it worse.
"In creating plans to address addiction ahead of time, we take the brunt of the shock away when it is presented. Establishing resources and means to attaining treatment with job security is critical to the livelihood of addiction treatment, and loyalty to companies."
