How Drug Abuse Takes Profit Out of
Business: How Drug Treatment Helps Put It Back 8 pg booklet
This booklet explains briefly how drug-abusing employees cost U.S.
businesses billions of dollars in absences, accidents, medical costs and
performance. It explains how treatment reduces demand for drugs, makes
people more productive, (more likely to be employed and not involved with
crime), pay taxes, and use fewer social services. This ultimately helps
reduce tax burdens on businesses. The demand for treatment is higher than
the supply, but considering the expenses such as the cost involved with
hiring a new employee, treatment plans are a worthwhile investment.
