HEALTH, SAFETY, AND SECURITY

DRUG AND ALCOHOL

The Company prohibits the unlawful use, sale, dispensing, transfer, or possession of controlled substances, substances not medically authorized or any other substance that may impair an employee’s work performance or pose a hazard to the individual, public, or employees of the Company on its property or at any of its activities. The Company reserves the right to submit to a drug test any employee who it has a reasonable suspicion is in violation of this policy. If an employee is found to be in violation of this policy, then he or she may be subject to discipline, up to and including termination. The moderate use of alcohol at Company approved meetings, with business meals, travel, entertainment or in an appropriate social setting, is not prohibited by this policy.

Employees may contact the Company Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to seek help anonymously for alcohol or other chemical dependency. The EAP provides education, encouragement, and referral services for assessment and rehabilitation for these and other personal matters. Employees who are struggling with drug or alcohol issues are encouraged to seek help before they are determined to have violated Company rules. To that end, self-referrals to the EAP will be kept confidential, and employees who seek voluntary rehabilitation prior to a violation of Company rules will not be disciplined for seeking help through the EAP. Once a violation of Company rules has occurred, however, a request for rehabilitation assistance shall not serve to waive the Company’s right to take appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including termination, to resolve the situation.
