Alcohol and the Workplace: Line Managers

Line managers are always an organisations first port of call in preventing and resolving front line issues. Alcohol harm has a casual effect on over 60 different medical conditions and should not be overlooked when it comes to managing wellbeing in a team. Managers also find it hard to know what is a drinking problem and what is not.                          

This training will support your managers to:

  • Understand how alcohol effects the body in both mental health and physical health.
  • Identify the signs of potential drinking problems and be the first line of intervention.
  • Learn how to effectively communicate with individuals in a non-judgemental approach towards their alcohol harm.
  • Use effective evidence-based tools recommended by the Department of Health, NICE and World Health Organisation.

Alcohol and the Workplace: Employers and Senior Management              

Many workplace cultures can exclude those who don’t want to drink or may be a risk to those who are vulnerable around alcohol. This can be in the form of informal socialising; workplace events and consumption of alcohol being encouraged. Understand the importance of a cultural shift within the workplace and why employers and senior managers play a crucial role in supporting staff.

Within this training your team will learn how to incorporate changes and positively challenge workplace stigma by:

  • Understanding why people drink and the impact of alcohol on people and organisations.
  • Understand how to model and encourage a healthy drinking culture.
  • Learn effective ways to model an alcohol policy in the workplace that is reliable, legal, and inclusive to all.
