TY - JOUR PY - 1999// TI - Occupational risk factors associated with alcohol and drug problems JO - American journal of drug and alcohol abuse encompassing all addictive disorders A1 - MacDonald, S.

Existing studies of occupational risk factors for alcohol and drug problems across multiple occupations and industries provide mixed findings with respect to Ames and Janes' framework. In a preliminary study, the relationships between occupational characteristics and measures of alcohol and drug problems were investigated among a sample of workers from a variety of occupations and industry settings. Some support was found for all of the major elements of Ames and Janes' framework: normative regulation of drinking, quality and organization of work, workplace factors, and drinking subcultures.
