POLICY STATEMENT
The use, possession, sale, manufacture, transfer, distribution, dispensation, or storage of a prohibited drug or drug paraphernalia by an employee while in the course of employment or while engaged in a Company-sponsored activity, on Company or customer property or in Company owned, rented or leased vehicles, is strictly prohibited. Further, an employee is strictly prohibited from reporting for work or working under the influence of a prohibited drug or in an impaired condition. An employee sall be deemed to be under the influence of a prohibited drug if he/she tests positive for a drug.
In addition, employees are required to advise the Company in writing through their immediate supervisor when they are using any prescription or over-the-counter drug which contains instructions, restrictions or warnings indicating that use of the drug may cause them to become impaired from safely performing their job duties (for example, indications that the drug may cause drowsiness or that it should not be used while the person is driving or operating equipment). Prescription or over-the-counter medication must be kept in its original container. Failure to comply with these restrictions with respect to prescription and over-the-counter medication shall be grounds for immediate termination.
