Essentials of a Written Policy  Clearly state why the policy or drug-free workplace program is being implemented  Clearly state that the program applies to all employees  Clearly state description of behaviors that are prohibited

 State which substances are prohibited  State what constitutes a positive test  State what testing procedures will be followed  State occasions on which testing will occur

 State the consequences of refusing to be tested or attempting to adulterate or substitute a specimen.  Reference the help available to employees with substance abuse problems.  State that supervisors will be trained prior to the implementation of any testing  Communicate the DFWP program and policy to all employees prior to implementation

Written Policy Needs  Union/employee input  Legal review

Supervisor training is an integral part of every DFWP program.

Supervisor Training

Effective employee education programs provide:  Company specific information such as details of the DFWP policy  The nature of alcohol and drug abuse  Its impact on work performance, health, personal and family life  What types of help are available Employee Education
