The union permissive drinking culture persists to modern times; the
culture remains
especially strong among the construction labor unions. Union
apprentices continue to be
exposed to drinking rituals both on and off the job (Sonnenstuhl, 1996).
Apprentices face
enormous pressures to participate in the culture under the fear of being
ousted from their
work group. For instance, apprentices and journeyman union members who
refuse to drink
often are ostracized and taunted by their peers, distrusted, and passed
over for the best jobs
(Iacuone, 2005). Therefore, there exists considerable pressure to spend
time thinking and
talking about alcohol, as well as to consume alcohol heavily in order to
fit in with peer
12
culture. “When tradesmen were not planning the next occasion when they
would drink beer
to the point of paralysis, alcohol would arise as a topic in other ways�
(Iacuone, 2005, p.
254).
Heavy substance abuse continues to be associated with blue collar
workers employed
at industrial jobsites, many of whom are union workers (Webb, Redman,
Hennrikus, Rostas,
& Sanson-Fisher, 1990). The underlying values of this culture associates
drinking with
positive consequences (Ames & Janes, 1992). For example, labor unions
often offer „open
bar‟ service at many union functions, including officer meetings and
retiree dinners, to
reward members, and as a symbol of union camaraderie (Janes & Ames,
1989). These
centuries-old union values favoring a workplace permissive drinking
culture serve as a
generational, cultural “bridge linking the past, present and the future�
(Bacharach,
Bamberger, & Sonnenstuhl, 2001, p. 62. Sadly, newer generations of union
members are
expanding that culture to include illicit drug as well as alcohol abuse.
