Recognize how opioid use disorder and substance use challenges affect the construction workforce\, organizational performance\, employee retention\, safety\, and business costs — including the staggering $58 billion annual impact on Arizona’s economy alone. \n\n\n\n2. Identify practical strategies for developing recovery-friendly workplace policies that balance accountability\, compliance\, and employee support\, and learn how the free Toolkit makes implementation straightforward. \n\n\n\n3. Evaluate the financial and operational benefits of investing in recovery-supportive workplace practices\, including impacts on productivity\, turnover\, absenteeism\, and workforce stability. \n\n\n\n4.
