If you are concerned that a member of staff may be suffering from a drug or alcohol addiction, please call us today.
Alcohol and drug misuse can have devastating effects on the individual and in the workplace. Not only does drug and/or alcohol impact the health and wellbeing of the substance abuser, but the workplace can also suffer as a result of addiction.
The cost to employers for issues related to drug or alcohol misuse can be high and include but are not limited to:
Addiction can affect anybody, and staff in business are no different. Whether the person is a CEO, a manager or a general staff member, addiction can strike anyone. Unlike the stereotypical portrayal of substance abuse in films and media, many people are able to function whilst under the influence of addictive substances, commonly known as functioning addicts. This can be a huge issue as functioning addicts are harder to diagnose and are less likely to admit that there is a substance abuse problem as they are able to continue with life as “normal”.
This makes approaching a colleague about an addiction even more challenging as a substance problem can be hard to detect. Functioning addicts can also be defensive or in denial about their addiction, particularly in a work environment as it threatens their reputation, job and livelihood.
It is useful to be able to spot the warning signs of somebody with a substance abuse. This can include:
Make sure to take note of behavioural or physical changes in your employee to use for evidence later in an intervention or meeting with the staff member. These signs of substance abuse are a good place to start getting your employee to accept their problem and begin the process of recovery.

As an employer, Ocean Recovery Centre understands that investment in staff can be high and the loss of key staff members due to an alcohol or drug addiction can cause any business huge issues. No business owner wishes to see their investment in staffing lost through the absence, dismissal or injury of a worker as a result of substance abuse.
The discussion of addiction and rehab is a difficult topic for employers. Balancing what is in the business’ best interest and trying to carry out your duty of care as an employer can be challenging. Employers can find themselves wrestling with a business versus moral dilemma which can make the decision of how to proceed more difficult.

Ocean Recovery Centre currently works with many UK and international businesses who are committed to helping their key staff tackle their drug and alcohol addiction issues. Our treatment clinics are designed for employees to engage with the treatment programme, whilst maximising in-house digital technology to stay involved at work.
Our experienced admissions team will work closely with your HR (Human Resource) Department, Health Service or with business owners and managers. Booking a place in our clinic for your employee is a very discreet and simple process, and we ensure that your member of staff and company remain anonymous to help safeguard your businesses reputation.
Although private treatment may seem expensive, the investment could be the better alternative to the neglect of an employee’s welfare or dismissal. The average investment in key team members of a business is estimated to be in the region of £30,000 per individual. This indicates that rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction may be the best and most economical solution long term, as well as the improvement in your employee’s personal welfare.
We provide many treatment packages that are suitable for funding from the majority of occupational health insurance schemes. Get in touch with a member of our team today to find out more about our rehab treatment plans for employees. One of our admissions team can discuss your treatment and payment options with you.
If you are concerned a member of staff may be suffering from a drug or alcohol addiction and would like to know more about our treatments or would like some advice, please call us today on 01253 847 553.
