Madison is aware of a fellow colleague with a drug abuse problem. Until recently, it did not appear to be affecting job performance. Now the colleague is missing work and failing to meet with clients as required. Madison does not want to get her fellow worker in trouble and feels someone else will eventually notice the problem. How else could this be handled?
  1. Surprise drug testing at the workplace
  2. Tell another colleague about the problem
  3. Tell a supervisor immediately
  4. Talk to the colleague having a problem
Explanation
- Madison should first talk to her coworker with the drug abuse problem. Clinical social workers are professionals in many fields, and this should also fall into place with their own colleagues. If there is direct knowledge of a fellow worker’s impairment, that individual should first be consulted and assisted in taking action.
