Chemical Dependency in the Workplace

Paper Summary:

This document discusses in detail the article by Michael Sanson 'Everyone Must Not Get Stoned' in which he decries the state of drug usage in the food service industry. Additionally, the paper discusses how he believes the industry itself is not doing enough to address the problem. Certainly, according to Sanson, the industry and its major proponents could be more proactive.

From the Paper:

"In 'Everyone Must Not Get Stoned' author Sanson notes that drug and alcohol abuse in the food service industry is a major concern for the industry overall. While the average rate of drug usage among all industries is reported to be 7.6%, in the food service industry it is said to be 16.5% (Sanson, 1999, p.18). This rate of drug usage within the food service industry leads to a host of issues that directly affect the revenues of food service industry participants through various methods (Sanson, 1999, p.18)."
