The opioid epidemic is exacting a terrible human cost on its victims, but it’s not ignoring their employers.
A new study from the Kaiser Family Foundation finds that large employers spent $2.6 billion to treat opioid addiction and overdoses in 2016. That’s up eightfold just since 2004 — and more than half of that amount went to treat employees’ children.

Researchers have found that when a person rates their current mental health as 'positive' despite meeting criteria for a mental health problem such as depression, it can predict good mental health in the future, even without treatment.
Using data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, Sirry Alang of Lehigh University and her co-authors, Donna D. McAlpine of the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, and Ellen McCreedy of Brown University, sampled people who met the criteria for having a mental health problem and examined differences between those who do and do not rate their own mental health as poor.

Employee wellness is sometimes thought of as a nice-to-have rather than a must-have — something you worry about when you already have all your other ducks in a row.
But the reality is that if you put off employee wellness initiatives until you’re “big enough” or “ready for them,” it will already be too late.
That’s because employee wellness and employee performance are linked. A culture of wellness actually drives results by helping to create an engaged workforce.

These are all critical aspects of safety and they all pertain to physical security. But we also need to look at issues of emotional and psychological safety in addition to physical security.

Muller adds that her local school system uses the ALICE training, a program that businesses may also employ. “ALICE (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) can also work with businesses and government, houses of worship and so on.”
While such training may be scary for staff at first, it “does provide some amount of empowerment and it also shows that the company cares.” Moreover, as Julie Croushore, VP of risk management at Engage PEO notes, it’s important that we are prepared if only so that should a shooting occur, we know exactly what to do in an almost automatic way, just as “we know exactly where fire escapes are because of all those fire safety drills.”
