Whether you’re a package handler, driver, or corporate staff member, these job demands can contribute to unhealthy coping habits over time. If substance use has started interfering with your work or personal life, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to deal with it on your own.
Ocean Ridge offers specialized addiction treatment for UPS employees. We also work closely with Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), making it easier to access support through your job.
If You’re Worried About Drug Testing, You’re Not Alone
UPS employees work in fast-paced environments where safety and reliability matter. Because of this, some roles involve routine or situational drug testing. When stress builds up or substance use starts to become a way of coping, the thought of being tested can create even more pressure.
If this is something you’re dealing with, you’re not alone. Many people in demanding jobs feel the same way. Understanding your options and knowing that support exists can help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Why Treatment Matters for UPS Employees
The nature of work at UPS can take a toll on mental and physical health. Tight schedules, physical labor, and shift changes can lead to exhaustion, stress, and burnout. Over time, these pressures may contribute to substance use—whether it’s alcohol to unwind after a shift or prescription drugs to manage pain or stay alert.
Getting professional help not only improves your well-being but also protects your job, your relationships, and your future. At Ocean Ridge, we provide compassionate support and evidence-based treatment designed to help UPS employees recover in a safe, respectful environment.
Our Approach to Addiction Recovery
We believe that every person’s path to recovery is different. Our programs offer structure, support, and tools for long-term healing. They’re a good fit for those seeking treatment for the first time or for those who have tried treatment before.
You don’t need to hit rock bottom to ask for help. If you’re struggling with substance use, there’s no shame in reaching out.
Drug Rehab Tailored to Your Needs
We offer drug rehab for UPS employees who may be using opioids, stimulants, benzodiazepines, or other substances. Our treatment team helps you safely detox and rebuild your life with clinical therapy, life skills, and relapse prevention.
We understand that substance use can affect people at all stages of life and work. Whether you’re a new hire or a long-time employee, we’re here to help.
Alcohol Rehab for Working Professionals
Alcohol is often socially accepted but can quickly lead to dependence. If drinking has started to affect your mood, job performance, or health, our treatment program can help you regain control.
At our alcohol rehab for UPS employees, you’ll work with licensed counselors to uncover the root causes of your alcohol use and build healthier coping strategies for stress, relationships, and life’s challenges.
What Is an Employee Assistance Program (EAP), and Why Does It Matter?
An Employee Assistance Program, or EAP, is a confidential benefit many companies offer to help employees manage personal challenges. These programs often include support for mental health, substance use, and emotional well-being at no cost to the employee.
Employers like Boeing recognize the value of early support and make it easier for their teams to access care. The Boeing Employee Assistance Program helps connect individuals with providers like Ocean Ridge Recovery to begin the healing process in a safe, private way.
Understanding How FMLA Protects Your Job During Treatment
Many UPS employees hesitate to seek treatment because they are worried about how taking time away will affect their job. FMLA allows eligible employees to take medical leave for substance use or mental health treatment while keeping their position and health benefits in place.
If you are unsure how to start, we can help walk you through the process. Our admissions team is familiar with FMLA requirements and can guide you in handling the paperwork so you can focus on your recovery with clarity and peace of mind.
We Accept Most Insurance Plans
In addition to the providers above, we also work with CIGNA, and most major PPO providers.

UPS may conduct drug testing as part of its commitment to maintaining a safe and reliable workplace. Testing can occur during the hiring process, after an accident, or randomly for certain positions, especially those involving driving or operating heavy equipment. These measures help ensure a professional, drug free environment across all UPS facilities.
