Building Supportive Workplaces: Embracing Recovery and Breaking Stigma

Through recovery friendly workplaces, we can fight the stigma associated with the disease of addiction and encourage employees to get help sooner by providing resources that support their own.
Imagine a workplace where the topic of addiction isn't whispered about in hushed tones but openly discussed, where employees feel safe to seek help without fear of judgment. In this episode of 'Recovery Talk', Kris Kelly, Nell Hurley, and Marin Nelson dive into the transformative power of creating recovery-friendly workplaces. They share their firsthand experiences and shed light on how employers can play a pivotal role in supporting employees on their recovery journeys.
The conversation is rich with insights on normalizing discussions about sobriety and recovery, which in turn helps break the stigma surrounding addiction. By fostering an environment that encourages openness, employers not only aid in the fight against addiction but also create a more inclusive and supportive workplace culture. The pandemic has brought many challenges, particularly around substance use, making it crucial for workplaces to provide resources and support for those seeking help.
This episode offers a wealth of knowledge on the benefits and challenges of implementing recovery-friendly practices, highlighting the positive impact such initiatives can have on both employees and businesses. If you're curious about how to make your workplace more supportive or want to understand the importance of these initiatives, this episode is a must-listen.
