The synergism of health promotion and restoration in the prevention of substance abuse in the workplace.
Representatives from both health promotion and restoration fields can concert energies in preventing and reducing excessive and inappropriate substance use by employees. This liaison requires that workplace health promoters such as employee fitness/wellness directors, and workplace health restorers such as employee assistance providers, become more familiar with one another's work and better understand the nature of excessive or inappropriate drug consumption. Existing at the interface of these employee health services are opportunities for preventing workplace substance abuse through both enhancing workers' healthy lifestyles and establishing referral pathways to care.
