Our Drug & Alcohol Abuse for Managers training course equips supervisors and managers with the knowledge and tools to identify substance abuse in the workplace, respond appropriately, and guide affected employees toward help. Substance abuse is a serious problem in every industry — when drug or alcohol use impacts job performance, it becomes a supervisory concern with real consequences for workplace safety, productivity, and organizational liability. This 17-minute program covers the specific responsibilities of management, how to recognize substance abuse indicators, how to use Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), and how to handle workplace incidents involving substance abuse without enabling continued behavior. Available in English and Spanish.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between this course and the Drug & Alcohol Abuse for Employees course?

The Employees course is designed for the general workforce — covering self-awareness, recognizing substance abuse in coworkers, understanding drug testing, and knowing how to seek help. This Managers course is specifically designed for supervisors and managers, focusing on their unique responsibilities: identifying impaired employees, documenting observations, using EAPs, avoiding enabling behaviors, and conducting referrals. Both courses are typically deployed together for a complete drug-free workplace program.

What is an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and does this course cover it?

An Employee Assistance Program is a confidential workplace benefit that provides employees with short-term counseling, referrals, and support services for personal problems including substance abuse. This course covers how managers should use EAPs as a referral resource when addressing substance abuse concerns with employees — including how to present the option constructively without violating employee privacy or creating legal exposure.

Can a manager discipline or terminate an employee based on suspected substance abuse?

This course covers the appropriate steps managers should take when substance abuse is suspected — including documentation, referral to EAPs, and following established workplace policy. Disciplinary decisions should always follow your organization's written drug-free workplace policy and be made in consultation with HR or legal counsel. This training provides the foundational knowledge managers need to act appropriately, but it does not constitute legal or HR advice.

Does this subscription automatically renew?

Yes. This is a prepaid subscription that automatically renews at the end of each term at the then-current price unless canceled. You can view, manage, or cancel your subscription at any time through your account portal.

What's the difference between Streaming, MP4, USB, and DVD?

Streaming gives you instant online access from any device — no download required. MP4 is a one-time download you host on your own platform such as an LMS, file server, or SharePoint. USB and DVD are physical media shipped to you, best for classroom training where internet access is limited or unavailable.

If I purchase the USB, can I copy the video to share with others?

No. The video on the USB is encrypted and licensed to only be played from the USB. It must be inserted in your computer for it to play.

What documentation is provided for compliance recordkeeping?

The kit includes a compliance manual, employee quiz and answer key, completion certificates, wallet/ID cards, an attendance log, a training outline, and drug and alcohol safety supplemental printouts — everything needed to document that training was completed.

How do I access the Documentation on the DVD?

You will need to access the DVD with a computer so you can browse to the Documentation folder.
