The Company Leaders Launch A Number Of Programs In Order To Help Reduce The Costs Associated With Poor Employee Work Performance



Christine is a fifty-six-year-old woman who is the top administrator in the HR department at a large plastics finishing company. To help decrease the costs correlated with excessive sick days, poor employee work performance, employee alcohol abuse and alcoholism, increasing absenteeism, and work related injuries, Christine and the other company administrators instituted quite a few programs that made the work atmosphere substantially more safe, healthy, and more productive.

For instance, twelve years ago Christine and the other company executives implemented an Employee's Assistance Program so that all the workers had access to first-rate therapy for their personal problems that could adversely influence their health, personal well-being, and their work performance.

As another example, around seven years ago Christine and the other company executives constructed an avant-garde exercise and workout room complete with scales, weights, many different types of exercise equipment, a personal trainer during business hours, exercise charts, and mirrors.

As another illustration, about two years ago, Christine and the other VIPs put into operation a "Weight-Watchers" class that at this time meets every Tuesday and Thursday at 5:00 PM until 6:00 PM. Furthermore, the company leaders signed up a weight-loss trainer to manage the program.

In the last eleven months, in combination with the Employee's Assistance Program, Christine and the other company executives initiated an "Anger Management" class for workers who want to learn how to better control their anger.

In the last two-and-a-half months, Christine and the other company leaders put into operation a drug and alcohol testing program that is linked with their alcohol and drug abuse prevention program. Indeed, Christine is the primary person in the company responsible for getting the message out to all the workers about the drug and alcohol abuse prevention program as well as the drug and alcohol testing program.

Another relatively recent addition to the drug and alcohol abuse prevention program is a class entitled "Alcohol Statistics and Facts." The rationale behind this alcohol statistics facts class is that quite a few individuals fail to grasp the total impact of the results of alcohol dependency and alcohol abuse without first getting exposed to some of the alcohol abuse and alcoholism statistics and facts that are available. As a consequence, one of the objectives of this class is to provide a variety of alcohol abuse and alcohol dependency facts and statistics in order to help workers gain a better comprehension of the host of problems that are correlated with excessive and irresponsible drinking and how they can prevent these difficulties from transpiring.

Most recently Christine and the other company leaders, by way of suggestions from employees, created a class that focuses directly on acute drinking entitled "What is Alcoholism"? This class meets every Tuesday morning an hour-and-a-half before work and focuses essentially on the differences between alcohol addiction and alcohol abuse, on some of the fundamental differences between statistics on alcohol abuse and statistics on alcoholism, and on the different kinds of treatment that are available for people who have alcohol drinking problems such as people who drink in a hazardous manner.

Even though every single one of these health and preventative maintenance programs was anything but easy on the pocketbook, the company executives feel that they are several thousands of dollars ahead by providing all of their employees with a more productive, healthy, and safe work atmosphere.
