Summary

Evaluate the feasibility of implementing workplace opioid guidelines in the construction trades; define and collect measures of implementation and efficacy. The investigators will implement the intervention in three local union health funds, evaluate the implementation using the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework, and collect the data needed to measure the efficacy of health changes due to implementation of the intervention (workplace opioid guidelines). This is only a feasibility trial in preparation for conducting an randomized control trial. For the efficacy trial, the investigators will measure pre-post health change using two data sources: 1) administrative health claims and electronic member work hours, and 2) worker/member surveys. To monitor implementation of the intervention, the investigators will measure changes made to the health funds opioid prevention program through qualitative interviews with the health fund manager and through worker surveys for worker awareness and use of the health fund program changes pre-post implementation. The efficacy outcomes for the administrative health (and pharmacy) claims and work hours record will measure opioid prescriptions, chronic opioid use, and OUD in health claims and pharmacy data (details below). The efficacy outcomes for the worker surveys will record changes in misuse of opioids, change in missed days/work productivity, change in attitudes toward seeking help if worker was struggling with opioid misuse, and awareness and use of health fund programs (i.e. employee assistance programs, healthcare recovery services). the investigators will collect data at baseline and and after 6 months for the study of implementation and efficacy (a pre/post design, one-arm trial).
