Abstract A first part of this article on alcoholism at work consists of summaries of studies and cases from literature on alcohol and occupational accidents and on the prevalence of alcoholism at work and among the general population. The article then presents the findings of a questionnaire survey of industrial physicians in Lower Normandy on alcoholism at work, highlighting an important risk among short-term employees and in companies specialised in the hiring workers for the purposes of their reintegration.
