Behavioral Health Programs Overview
Your Organization’s Performance and Productivity: The Need
Lost work time due to emotional/psychological problems, stress-related disorders, workplace accidents, and drug/alcohol abuse has a huge effect on businesses. Here are some bottom line reasons from the US Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS) on the impact of these issues on U.S. businesses of any size.
- In the last two years, U.S. companies lost over 5,800 million workdays due to personal problems, which cost our economy $125 billion.
- 25% of the U.S. workforce experiences problems that directly impact job performance and productivity.
- Troubled employees have 4 to 6 times more absences and file 3 to 4 times more medical claims than their healthy co-workers.
- 65-85% of all industrial accidents involve troubled employees.
The economic impact of alcoholism, drug abuse, and psychological/emotional concerns may increase to over $175 billion per year by mid-century. Approximately 75% of this amount represents products, goods, and services never produced, never delivered due to these issues.
These problems cause absenteeism, accidents, health insurance claims, co-worker friction, low morale, and high turnover. In summary, unproductive and impaired employees cost your company time, energy and valuable resources.
