商品簡介
Most of the contributors to these 17 chapters are from the UK, but the problem of substance abuse in the workplace is global and, as the foreword writer notes, abusers do not conform to any stereotype. Ghodse (psychiatry and international drug policy, U. of London) introduces the scope of the problem, employer responsibilities, and management tools. Other experts address the health and economic impact of alcohol and legal drugs as well as illicit substances, and the ethical/legal issues of drug policies and testing. The drug and alcohol policies of two companies are appended as examples. Distributed by Ashgate. Annotation c2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
