1. The Oxygen Tank Draggers
We have all known, or at least seen, the individuals who
from middle age and onward must drag an oxygen tank
behind them wherever they go. This is because their lungs
are so deteriorated from smoking that they are unable to pull
in and process as much oxygen as everyone else’s lungs.
In other words, they cannot physically function without the
oxygen that they are dragging around behind them. Of
course, all of this started with either cigarettes or drug abuse,
but drug abuse is just as likely to cause cancer in the lungs as
some of the tar found in some cigarettes. In addition to that,
drug abuse has been linked to respiratory problems, as has
severe and chronic alcoholism.
Now, obviously anyone who is dragging an oxygen tank
behind them is not very marketable and does not appear very
competent in the workplace. Naturally, you would wish your
employees to be a little more developed than that. Try out our drug test equipment for your
employee drug testing. Alcohol test and drug testing is part of keeping your other, non-abusing
employees safe. In fact, screening tests are really the only way to ensure that employees are
following company policy concerning drug testing, since verbal confirmation cannot be entirely, or
scientifically, trusted.
Obviously, we here at CMM Technology are not prejudiced against anyone with a disability. It is,
however, recommended that the oxygen tank draggers should be closely examined for employment,
since a history of compulsive self sabotage has already been established and is openly available for
the public to see. That is another thing about employees who exhibit lack of self control from their
younger years. Their credibility is ruined with professional clientele.
All parts of your business must be kept well maintained and intact. There must be set standards, and
your employees, who work for you, must maintain those standards within and among themselves.
With the amount of help which is available for recovering addicts, including but not limited to
employee assistance programs set up within companies, there really is no excuse for allowing
abusive behavior to enter your own workplace. Call CMM Technology today for more information:
