Alcohol and Drugs

Drinking, drugs, and work don’t mix! Use of alcohol or drugs can make almost any task more dangerous.

What you can do to stay safe:

Find out the facts on the effects of alcohol and drug use.
Ask your employer if your worksite has a drug-free workplace program.
Speak up if you suspect someone at work is using. If it is a friend, get advice on how to help.
Share your story. You have a job, you have a life. See My Life, My Anti-Drug to connect with other teens about living drug free.
