abstract: 'Alcohol and other drug (AOD) use disorders exact a prodigious annual
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
economic toll in the United States (U.S.), driven largely by lost
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
productivity due to illness-related absenteeism, underemployment, and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
unemployment. While recovery from AOD disorders is associated with
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
improved health and functioning, little is known specifically about
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
increases in productivity due to new or resumed employment and who may
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
continue to struggle. Also, because employment can buffer relapse risk
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
by providing structure, meaning, purpose, and income, greater knowledge
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
in this regard would inform relapse prevention efforts as well as
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
employment-related policy. We conducted a cross-sectional, nationally
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
representative survey of the U.S. adult population assessing persons who
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
reported having resolved an AOD problem (n. = 2002). Weighted
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
employment, unemployment, retirement, and disability statistics were
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
compared to the general U.S. population. Logistic and linear regression
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
models tested for differences in employment and unemployment among
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
demographic categories and measures of well-being. Compared to the
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
general U.S. population, individuals who had resolved an AOD problem
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
were less likely to be employed or refired, and more likely to be
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
unemployed and disabled. Certain recovering subgroups, including those
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
identifying as black and those with histories of multiple arrests, were
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
further disadvantaged. Conversely, certain factors, such as a higher
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
level of education and less prior criminal justice involvement were
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
associated with lower unemployment risk. Despite being in recovery from
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
an AOD problem, individuals continue to struggle with obtaining
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
employment, particularly black Americans and those with prior criminal
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
histories. Given the importance of employment in addiction recovery and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
relapse prevention, more research is needed to identify employment
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
barriers so that they can be effectively addressed.'
