Drug & Alcohol Abuse Prevention Training for Construction Workers

A practical course that builds awareness of substance misuse risks on construction sites and equips workers and supervisors to promote a safer, substance-free workplace.

Course Overview

This Drug & Alcohol Abuse Prevention course provides a comprehensive foundation on the critical aspects of drug and alcohol misuse within the construction industry. Learners explore how substances affect the brain and behavior, how impairment increases the likelihood of workplace accidents, and the progressive stages of substance use disorders (SUDs).

The program covers commonly abused substances, signs of impairment, and the role workers and supervisors play in recognizing and responding to substance-related risks. The course also explains workplace prevention programs and how they support compliance with federal expectations such as the OSHA General Duty Clause (Section 5(a)(1)).

Why This Training Matters

  • Reduces risk: Substance impairment dramatically increases the chance of incidents on construction sites.
  • Supports compliance: Helps employers meet obligations under the General Duty Clause and supports Drug-Free Workplace Programs (DFWP) where required.
  • Promotes a safety culture: Encourages proactive prevention, early recognition, and appropriate intervention.
