Which of the following statements about substance abuse in the workplace is false?

  1. Drug abuse is limited to entry-level employees

  2. Drug abusers have a higher accident rate than drug-free employees

  3. Drug abusers have more sick time than drug-free employees

  4. Supervisors have a duty to report any illegal activity involving substance abuse

The correct answer is: Drug abuse is limited to entry-level employees

The statement that drug abuse is limited to entry-level employees is false because substance abuse can affect individuals across all levels of an organization, not just those in entry-level positions. Substance abuse issues can occur among management, skilled professionals, and employees at various hierarchies in a workplace. This misconception may stem from stereotypes that associate lower-tier employees with higher likelihoods of substance abuse, yet the reality is more complex and pervasive throughout the workforce. Understanding workplace substance abuse involves recognizing that addiction can impact anyone, regardless of their job title or level of responsibility. Employees at any level might face pressures that can lead to substance misuse, thereby emphasizing the need for comprehensive prevention and intervention strategies across the entire organization.
