      1/8: 75% of workplaces are impacted by opioids, so in this #SundaySpotlight I’m featuring an easy-to-use tool from @NSCsafety, @NORCNews and @ShatterproofHQ providing businesses useful information about the hidden costs of substance use in the workplace.pic.twitter.com/n9XDJT1p4a

      2/8: To get your individualized results, visit http://NSC.org/drugsatwork  and enter in your industry, location and workforce size. The workplace costs predicted include those associated with alcohol, opioids, marijuana, and other illicit drugs.

      3/8: For example, substance misuse would cost a 500-person construction company in my home state of Indiana $215,345 a YEAR because of lost time, job-turnover, and healthcare costs.pic.twitter.com/iLILdf0wHY

      4/8: Strikingly, construction, entertainment, recreation and food service businesses have nearly twice the rates of substance and alcohol use as the national average.pic.twitter.com/ARhV3dBX5X

          5/8: 33% of workers have family members affected by opioids. For example, in that same 500-person construction company in Indiana, a total of 79 employees and 85 dependents are predicted to be affected by substance use.pic.twitter.com/nR0Ow0xHkQ

          6/8: On the bright side, we know that #RecoveryIsPossible and it's good for business! Each employee who recovers from a substance use disorder (SUD) saves a company more than $3,200 a YEAR. In fact, they even miss one less day of work each year than an employee without an SUD.pic.twitter.com/cS0mb85uk3

          7/8: Take action – after using the cost calculator, get the information and tools you need at http://nsc.org/opioidsatwork . For example, consider using and sharing “Warn Me” labels that can be affixed to insurance cards, available at http://nsc.org/takeaction .pic.twitter.com/ZArEKNBn9l

          8/8: Even one step towards engaging your employees and creating compassionate policies can save employers money and make a difference to #stopeverydaykillers. Calculate your costs at http://NSC.org/drugsatwork  to start making a difference in your workplace and help save lives.pic.twitter.com/vTonm0Znpn
