As an employer, you know this: the health of your employees has an impact on your bottom line. While prescription opioids can provide patients pain relief for a short time, more often than not, they lead to impairment, addiction, and fatal overdose.

The national opioid crisis is no longer something employers can afford to ignore. Employees that misuse or abuse prescription opioids are more likely to miss work, incur higher healthcare costs, file disability claims, and get demoted or fired. This issue not only impacts employers’ current workforce, but also the talent pool to hire new skilled employees.

There are steps employers can take to keep their employees healthy and safe. Join us for a 30-minute webinar on August 30 that will provide employers with tips and understanding of how to address opioid misuse, increase awareness of opioid risks, and ultimately support employees with the programs to prevent and manage opioid abuse. The webinar will also provide a brief history of the epidemic and how risk management can help.
