Employers seeking to have recovery-friendly workplaces might have questions about how to better support their employees who are recovering from a substance-use disorder. Small- and medium-sized employers, in particular, might not have sufficient capacity or expertise in human resources to address potential issues that can arise. This strategy spotlight highlights an innovative effort, funded through a National Health Emergency (NHE) Dislocated Worker Demonstration Grant to Address the Opioid Crisis, to provide Pennsylvania employers with free expert advice on how to address potential issues and support their employees in recovery.
