Substance Abuse Program Management and Department of Transportation (DOT) Compliance

"Up to 40 percent of industrial fatalities and 47 percent of industrial injuries can be linked to alcohol consumption and alcoholism."
- Bernstein, M. and Mahoney, J., 1989.

Alcohol and drug problems are increasing, and their effect on the workplace and family is devastating. Southwest EAP counselors make every effort to respond to the whole situation. We realize the impaired person is only one of the people who are affected by the addiction. Family, supervisors, co-workers, and customers are also involved. Southwest EAP provides comprehensive services to address these issues.
