People who use crystal meth will stay up without sleep for days and if they come to work with no sleep that is not good for their bio-systems or your customer base as you can see something is wrong with them. If a worker has blood shot eyes or dilated pupils it sends up red flags, not to mention the liability risk if something goes wrong on the job. When a person gives up their personal goals and destiny for a drug, they no longer care about anything except the next time they are on it. Some who are pro-legalization of crystal meth say that employees on drugs are more enthusiastic and alert and make better workers. Well if they think that they must be on something. If you are a drug user and you are a functioning drug user, that is your thing, but to take that experience and spread it to the whole of the population base is a real problem with overall productivity and safety. The jails are full of cokeheads, meth junkies and the like and there is a reason for this you know. If they were totally peaceful then they would not do such things to get themselves into trouble. Believe me as an employer you want nothing to do with anyone on drugs in the work place. If you have an accident, problem or bizarre behavior flare up in the work place due to the drug issues you will be sorry and the costs in reputation to your business will be immense. If you think someone has a drug problem, test them and fire them, you do not need them in your business. Consider this in 2006. |
