Alcohol Problems in Employment (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Hore, Brian D.; Plant, Martin A.

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The majority of problem-drinkers are not unemployed derelicts but are employed persons often with senior positions in commerce, the professions and industry. Furthermore, it is well-known that alcohol causes widespread absenteeism, inefficiency and accidents at work.

Originally published in 1981, Alcohol Problems in Employment reviews the evidence relating to the general effects of alcohol misuse on employment and the special problems involved in certain 'high-risk' industries at the time. A number of international case studies are then presented to illustrate what was being done to counter the problem.
