TN Chamber Presents: Tools to Help Employers Navigate the Opioid Crisis

Description

Statewide Business Solutions to fight the Opioid Crisis  – Four Statewide Events Aimed to Provide Awareness and Resources

Tennessee has been hit hard by the opioid crisis—harming individuals, families, communities, and employers.  Each year, Tennessee’s economy loses billions in lost workforce productivity.  Businesses across Tennessee need solutions to help combat this problem and the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce & Industry is working to provide real solutions to employers to better manage the opioid crisis. 

Join us for a breakfast discussion, connect with recovery resources, and learn how to create programs to support employees struggling with opioid dependence.  Each event will highlight local resources and organizations employers can work with to prevent opioid misuse in the workplace, create programs to reduce stigma, and help direct opioid dependent employees to recovery services.  We’ll convene employers with first responders, law enforcement, recovery organizations, and community leaders to foster meaningful dialog on working together to solve this community and economic crisis.
