Summary
Stress and other challenges often follow us into the workplace, and for those struggling with opioid dependency, the risks can be even more serious. Opioid overdose can happen on the job, yet many employees aren't aware of the warning signs or how to respond to help save a coworker’s life. In this episode, we explore efforts to create safer, more supportive work environments, including initiatives to make naloxone accessible and build recovery-friendly workplaces. Hear how businesses can be part of the solution. Guests: Lorraine Martin, CEO of the National Safety Council Desiree Voshefksy, Community Impact Manager at Community Medical Services for Eastern Arizona Cal Beyer, Senior Director for SAFE Workplaces at SAFE Project Dr. Joel Moody, Chief Prevention Officer and Assistant Deputy Minister for the Ontario Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills development Resources: The Alliance for Naloxone Safety in the Workplace Waging A Counterattack on Opioids: First-Dose Prevention Strategies for the Workplace & at Home
