- Abstract
The abuse of illicit drug leads to many short-term and long-term negative physical effects such as hallucinations, loss of coordination, and in severe cases even death. To add on, drug abuse may also lead to serious harm to the organization and its employee. For example, the effects of consuming drugs in the workplace are reduced workforce size, increase in absenteeism and loss of productivity. The government has made an effort to curb it by having a six-point program which targets the management, workplace policy, educating the employees, drug screening, availability of treatment and corporate sponsorship.
