Objectives: In recent decades, an increasing proportion of working women have been drinking alcohol, and therefore the gap between men and women drinking alcohol has narrowed relative to consumption and issues. This is a reflection of increasing economic accomplishments of women in recent decades that has made it more socially acceptable for women to drink alcohol at levels comparable with men. Methods: In this study we examined how drinking norms of women in organizations impact their alcohol-related issues. Results: Results revealed that drinking norms for women in their organization influence alcohol-related issues. However, this direct path was partially counterbalanced by alcohol expectancy and level of drinking alcohol. Conclusion: From these results, workers recognize differences between men and women relative to drinking alcohol and can reduce negative experiences caused by drinking alcohol in adjusting to expectations and their level of drinking alcohol.
