DRUG FREE WORKPLACE PROGRAM <br />SFM IS PROUD TO PARTICIPATE IN THE NATIONAL DRUG FREE WORKPLACE PROGRAM. <br />It is our desire to provide a drug free, healthy, and safe <br />workplace. To promote this goal, employees are required to <br />report to work in appropriate mental and physical condition to <br />perform their jobs in a satisfactory manner. While on our <br />account premises and while conducting business-related <br />activities off premises, no employee may use, possess, <br />distribute, transfer, sell, or be under the influence of alcohol or <br />illegal drugs to help ensure a safe and healthy working <br />environment. <br />Much like seat belts with automobiles, Insurance companies <br />have stringent requirements in the coverage they provide. Job applicants and employees may be asked to <br />provide body substance samples (such as urine and/or blood) to determine the illicit or illegal use of drugs and <br />alcohol at any time during their employment if there is justifiable cause to do so. <br />All employees are subject to post accident drug testing. An employee involved in a work-related injury is <br />required to take a drug/alcohol test with their post-accident visit at any care provider. <br />SFM’s Drug-Free Workplace Policy sends a clear message that alcohol and drug use in the workplace is <br />prohibited. <br />Objectives/ Goals <br /> To reduce drug use in the workplace <br /> To increase productivity <br /> To improve efficiency <br /> To reduce accidents in the workplace <br /> To deliver better customer service <br /> To demonstrate a more professional attitude and standard of conduct <br /> Encourage employees who have alcohol and or substance abuse problems to voluntarily seek help <br />To achieve these goals, SFM Services conducts: <br /> Initial and periodic safety training sessions <br /> Drug Abuse Awareness pamphlets <br /> Random Drug Screening of existing employees <br /> Alcohol and Drug screening in the event of work-related accidents <br /> Complete drug Screening of all job candidates prior to start of assignments <br /> Formal and informal counseling by trained supervisors <br /> <br />64 <br /> <br />
