Study and Recommendations on the HIMS, FADAP, and Other Drug and Alcohol Programs within the USDOT

Completed

Topics

In response to a congressional mandate, a National Academies committee will examine drug and alcohol programs within the Department of Transportation, the Federal Aviation Administration, and in similar industries/sectors. In particular, it will review the Human Intervention Motivation Study (HIMS) program and the Flight Attendant Drug and Alcohol Program (FADAP); explore best policies and practices, including best practices for prevention; and consider programs to implement or existing programs to change that could best assist employees to get treatment and return to work.
