INTERNAL INFORMATION AUDITS

CEO’s and senior management today are faced with increasing business challenges and liabilities unprecedented in history. They are entrusted with the overall guidance of the company while ensuring proper management of the company’s assets and its people. Accurate and specifically focused information and knowledge are essential to complying with this obligation.

Most managing executives currently receive information, not from a first hand basis, but after it has been filtered and interpreted by others. This information flows up from the shop floor to the supervisors, then to the mid-level managers, and on to the executive management team. One problem with this fact is that people do not like to convey bad news, which may reflect on their management success, or lack of it. Others simply do not take it upon themselves to “get involved” and follow a less risky path of being silent. This outcome often times results in senior management making decisions without critical information ñ operating with a false sense of security.

TAKING CHARGE: 
Impact Investigations, Inc. is a consulting business providing senior management with an invaluable tool - an unbiased and unfettered flow of information coming directly from the operations of your organization including both plant and field locations.

FACTS CONCERNING SUBSTANCE ABUSE

Sources quoted from the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce estimate that between 10% and 30% of the work force uses drugs, while 10% of non-substance abusers reported they were offered drugs while on the job.

According to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, substance abuse in the work place costs American companies $100 billion per year.

Employees who use drugs are less productive by 33 percent, are absent three times as often, and are tardy three times as often. These employees will also have accidents 3.6 times as frequently, incur 300% higher medical costs, and are 5 times more likely to file worker's compensation claims. It has also been noted that employees with a substance abuse problem will steal from their companies to support a drug habit.
