An Employers’ Guide to Opioids in the...Description
Presented by Tufts Health Freedom PlanWhat can you do if employees report a co-worker to HR for suspected heroin use? What if someone comes into the office with a legal prescription for marijuana? Does a person in a 12-step program who relapses have more legal protections than one who isn’t? What resources can employers provide to help workers achieve sobriety? Are you required to make accommodations when they return to your workplace?
This informative luncheon panel will explore the legal, medical, and social ramifications of opioid and other substance abuse on large and small businesses. Discussion will focus around risks and responsibilities of employers with addicted workers or their dependents, as well as options and
accommodations to help troubled employees into recovery.
Panelist Include:
• Steve Kozak, Tufts Health Plan
• Charla Bizios Stevens, McLane Middleton, PA
• Cheryle Pacapelli, Peer Recovery Support Services Facilitating Organization, Harbor Homes, Inc.Tell a Friend
