Addiction in the Workplace

This webinar, presented by ACOEM and MDGuidelines, aims to start the conversation about addiction in the workplace, outline which questions should be asked during the care of a working person, and decrease the stigma surrounding these cases. Returning people to work is often more challenging when addiction is driving mental health issues or preventing long-term recovery from an injury or illness. There are also considerations about work capacity, notably in safety-sensitive work. A brief scope of the problem, an outline of evidence-based treatment options, mental health considerations, and case studies will be presented by occupational health experts.

Health Information and Privacy: An Introduction and Overview

Exacerbated by the COVID pandemic, occupational health professionals are being exposed more than ever to receiving health information from personnel and employees under their care and management. While there are rules and regulations governing the privacy of worker protected health information (“PHI”), these are commonly misunderstood. Furthermore, many occupational health professionals don’t receive education on them. As a result, they are left to their own internet research or may rely on hearsay information as to what these rules mean and when they apply. This webinar will provide an overview of what rules apply to occupational health professionals and their practice, and the specific requirements of those rules. Even where the rules may not directly apply, there should still be an understanding of them as a form of guidance in establishing a standard of care for personal health information.
