    Seminar

    Opioids in the Workplace: What Employers Need to Know - 2:15 PM | 3:15 PM

    The abuse of opioids in the workplace has escalated to a national crisis, including for employers in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Abuse of opioids by employees in the workplace can cause concern for employers in many ways. For example, an employee’s productivity, the possibility of criminal activity occurring during working hours, the potential for exposure to threats to public safety, the welfare of its employees, and the negative impact on the employer’s reputation in the community are all areas of concern. This seminar will discuss when opioid abuse may be considered a disability, employers’ obligations to provide accommodations for employees with such a disability, and strategies to aid employers in preventing and addressing opioid abuse by its employees. Policies that employers should consider for implementation to address opioid abuse by employees will also discussed. (1.0 Substantive Credit)
