Published by the American Society of Addiction Medicine, a new resource provides an overview of best practices for identifying, treating, and supporting safety‑sensitive workers with Alcohol Use Disorder.

Dr. Chris Bundy, Executive Medical Director of the Washington Physicians Health Program and Chief Medical Officer of the Federation of State Physician Health Programs (FSPHP), and Dr. Paul Earley, Past President of FSPHP and Medical Director Emeritus of the Georgia Professional Health Program, contributed their expertise to “Supporting Safety-sensitive Workers with Alcohol Use Disorder.”

Drawing on established evidence, professional health program protocols, and the unique clinical considerations involved in caring for individuals whose work impacts public safety, the document outlines key components of assessment, treatment, long‑term monitoring, and recovery support.

This resource was made possible through collaboration with the Providers Clinical Support System and funding by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
