Employee Exposure to Coworker Substance Use and Negative Consequences
The current study assesses: (1) whether the relationship between individual exposure to coworker substance use and negative consequences resulting from exposure depends on work group membership, and (2) whether group-level characteristics moderate the relationship between exposure and consequences. At the group-level, we assessed occupations involving safety risk or high mobility and social factors of drinking climate and group cohesiveness. We c…
Ethnic Differences in the Workplace Environment by Employees in Two Municipal Workforces
With the Hispanic population becoming the fastest growing ethnicfaction in the civilian labor force, research findings from workforces that are predominately Hispanic are becoming greater in number This raises the possibility that findings from Hispanic research samples may not generalize to workforces that are primarily non-Hispanic, and vice versa. Evidence is presented to suggest that differences between Hispanic and non-Hipanic employees, amo…
Employee substance use and on-the-job behaviors.
Substance use and job behaviors were assessed in a sample of municipal employees from a large city in the southwestern United States. Job behaviors included psychological and physical withdrawal, positive work behaviors, and antagonistic work behaviors. Employees who reported substance use at or away from work were found to more frequently engage in withdrawal activities and antagonistic work behaviors than did nonusers, although users and nonuse…
Addict death rates during a four-year posttreatment follow-up
Mortality rates were examined among 3,324 Black and White daily opioid drug users for a four-year period following treatment in community-based agencies located across the United States. A total of 179 of these addicts died during this follow-up period, yielding a death rate of 15.2 per 1,000 person-years at risk. When adjusted for age, addict death rates were found to be three to 14 times higher than those in the general US population. Life tabl…
