Drug-Free Illinois Workplace Program
Funded by the
Illinois Department of
Human Services'
Bureau of Community
Based & Primary Prevention
and Division of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse
No business, regardless of size or location, is immune to the countless problems that alcohol and drug abuse can cause. Most individuals who abuse alcohol and other drugs are employed, and when they arrive for work, they don’t leave their problems outside the door. The Illinois Chamber’s Drug-Free Workplace Program was created to help eligible employers deal with the devastating problems created by substance abuse in the workplace.
