Addendum "A" City of Sunny Isles Beach Drug-Free Workplace Program CDL Drivers Policy It is the policy of the City of Sunny Isles Beach (City) to promote safety of mass transit operations by prohibiting the use of certain drugs and the misuse of alcohol by employees who perform safety-sensitive functions. City employees are our most valuable resource and it is our goal to provide a healthy, satisfying work environment that promotes personal opportunities for growth. As one of the steps necessary to meet this goal, it is our policy to: • Assure that employees are not impaired in their ability to perform assigned duties in a safe, productive, and healthy manner; • Create a workplace environment free from the adverse effects of drug and alcohol substance abuse and misuse; • Prohibit the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, attempt to purchase, possession, trafficking, driving under the influence (DUI) or use of controlled substances; and • Encourage employees to seek professional assistance anytime personal problems, including alcohol or drug use and misuse, adversely affect their ability to perform their. assigned duties. In accordance with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) regulations entitled Prevention of Prohibited Druq Use in Transit Operations (49 CFR Part 655), and to meet the goals set forth above, the City has established: • An alcohol misuse prevention program in which safety-sensitive employees are tested for the misuse of alcohol and supervisors are authorized to make reasonable suspicion testing determinations and are trained to recognize the signs and symptoms of alcohol misuse; and • An anti-drug program to detect the use of prohibited drugs by urine testing and to deter the use of those drugs by educating and training safety-sensitive employees about the safety and health ramifications of drug use and abuse. Implementation details are contained in this Drug-Free Workplace Program Policy — CDL Addendum, and are in conformance with 49 CFR Parts 40 and 655 as amended, or future amendments thereto.
