Purpose:
The JAVAA-Q (questionnaire) and
JAVAA-I (interview) are designed to provide a consistent assessment for
evaluating employees' work readiness following a positive test for alcohol or
other drugs, after an incident involving substances, or upon completion of
treatment for alcohol and other drug addictions.
The
JAVAA-Q
is a 75-item multiple-choice questionnaire to be completed by the employee.
Most clients can complete the form in 20 minutes. Scoring takes about 5
minutes. The JAVAA-Q can be completed before the interview with the counselor.
The
JAVAA-I
is a semi-structured interview, which allows for recording both open-ended
client responses and clinician ratings of key elements in the evaluation
process. The interview can be completed in about 30 minutes.
Both
the questionnaire and interview cover:
·
insight into the substance-related problem
·
adequacy of a recovery plan
·
the status or recognition from the job
·
attitudes about the job
·
relationships with coworkers
·
desire to return to work
·
emotional well-being
·
anger resolution
·
perceived support for recovery
Scoring
and Interpretation: A scoring template facilitates scoring of the JAVAA-Q. Interpretation of findings
should be done in the context of a return-to-work interview conducted by a
trained professional. The JAVAA-I provides a general rating of each of the
interview dimensions. Use of both the interview and questionnaire provides a
means of comparing the consistency of reporting by the employee. JAVAA summary
forms document the findings for the initial assessment, treatment outcome, and
final case disposition.
