Substance Abuse Assessment at Work

 Look for the following signs of possible substance abuse at the workplace:

• Poor physical appearance and hygiene. Many times, someone in need of a substance abuse assessment in the workplace will start to be inappropriately dressed and poorly groomed. Physically, they may have bloodshot eyes, slurred speech, excessive weight gain or loss, hand tremors and/or an unsteady stance.
• Negative change in mood. People with substance abuse problems tend to be very irritable or depressed at the workplace. Often times, they may seem completely introverted.
• Relationships go sour. Look for signs of substance abuse that include being insubordinate, argumentative, and accusatory. The person may begin not listening and/or excessively talk about dilemmas at home.
• A drop in work performance. Look for a change in productivity, poor quality of work, loss of concentration, inability to make decisions, misuse of equipment and frequent breaks, sick days or tardiness.
