Workers that Dope

Most people know at least one person at their job using illicit drugs, but how many really do?A recent survey conducted by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration indicates that 1 in 12 American, full-time workers acknowledge having used illegal drugs in the past month. The highest incidence is shown amongst restaurant workers and the lowest amongst teachers and social workers.
Although Federal officials indicate the study doesn’t really show if illicit drug usage has increased at the workplace, this information seems to be worrisome to others, since there are fewer successful treatment programs these days.
