It is common knowledge that illegal drug use has become a significant issue amongst young people. This affects not only their personal lives but also their behaviour in the workplace.

This appears to be the case particularly with young women. While the illegal drug use does not necessarily occur in the workplace or during work hours, it will still affects someone’s ability to perform in the workplace. Health issues associated with drug use may lead employees to take time off or they may not be in the right mental or physical condition to adequately perform their job duties.

Thousands of Australians retire / quit from their job every week. Employees cite a number of reasons for resigning. For example, some believe they were worked too hard, others aren’t happy with the hours they are given, and some believe that they were forced to resign for some reason.
