What are your options if you have an employee who tests positive for a drug and alcohol test, or who admits to having a substance use issue? Perhaps you’ve never thought about it, or maybe you just aren’t sure. Well, if you’re committed to ensuring a safe workplace, we can help. Our return-to-duty services ensure that your company is doing the due diligence required to maintain workplace safety. This is done while reducing downtime and injuries in order to increase overall productivity, to improve employee morale, and to maintain individual well-being.
At CannAmm, our goals through our return-to-duty services are to give employers and unions:
- A third-party case manager to avoid any perception of collusion or favouritism;
- Assurance that your organization adheres to all acts, policies, and regulations;
- Fewer grievances or complaints from other employees or union members;
- A fast and safe way to get individuals back into the workplace, thus reducing financial losses, and increasing production; and,
- Qualified service providers who can meet the needs of employees suffering from substance abuse disorders.
It is important that organizations adhere to the best practices that are outlined in the Construction Owners Association of Alberta (COAA) and U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) regulations. This is important as it shows others that your organization follows the generally accepted methods proven to be effective by the organizations listed above.
Our in-house Substance Abuse Professionals (SAPs) and Substance Abuse Experts (SAEs) are certified through the Canadian Addictions Counsellors Certification Federation (CACCF), and have extensive experience and training in assessing and treating substance use disorders.
