Drug-Free Workplace Policy
Purpose and Goal
Companion Animal Hospital is committed to protecting the safety, health and well being of all team members and other individuals in our workplace. We recognize that alcohol abuse and drug use pose a significant threat to our goals. We have established a drug-free workplace program that balances our respect for individuals with the need to maintain an alcohol and drug-free environment.
Covered WorkersAny individual who conducts business for Companion Animal Hospital, is applying for a position or is conducting business on the hospital’s property is covered by our drug-free workplace policy. Our policy includes, but is not limited to executive management, veterinarians, managers, supervisors, full-time and part-time team members, interns, preceptors and applicants.
ApplicabilityOur drug-free workplace policy is intended to apply whenever anyone is representing or conducting business for the hospital. Therefore, this policy applies during all working hours, or whenever conducting business or representing Companion Animal Hospital and while on hospital property.
Prohibited BehaviorIt is a violation of our drug-free workplace policy to use, possess, sell, trade, and/or offer for sale alcohol, illegal drugs or intoxicants. Prescription and over-the-counter drugs are not prohibited when taken in standard dosage and/or according to a physician’s prescription. Any team member taking prescribed or over-the-counter medications will be responsible for consulting the prescribing physician and/or pharmacist to ascertain whether the medication may interfere with safe performance of his/her job. If the use of a medication could compromise the safety of the team member, fellow team member or the public, it is the team member’s responsibility to use appropriate personnel procedures (e.g., call in sick, use PTO or vacation time, notify practice manager) to avoid unsafe workplace practices. The illegal or unauthorized use of prescription drugs is prohibited. It is a violation of our drug-free workplace policy to intentionally misuse and/or abuse prescription medications. No team member shall distribute a personally prescribed medication to another team member. Appropriate disciplinary action will be taken if job performance deterioration and/or other accidents occur.
Notifications of ConvictionsAny team member who is convicted of a criminal drug violation in the workplace must notify Companion Animal Hospital in writing within five calendar days of the conviction. Companion Animal Hospital will take appropriate action within 30 days of notification.
Drug TestingTo ensure the accuracy and fairness of our testing program, all testing will be conducted off site at Physical Evaluation Services who will ensure the chain of custody. Prospective or current team members who test positive have the opportunity to provide a legitimate medical explanation, such as a physician’s prescription or letter for the positive result with a documented chain of custody. All drug-testing information will be maintained in team members confidential records. Each team member, as a condition of employment, will be required to participate in pre-employment, random, post-accident and reasonable suspicion testing upon selection or request of management. The substances that will be tested for are: amphetamines, barbiturates, cannabinoids, cocaine and phencyclidine (PCP). Testing for the presence of the metabolites of drugs will be conducted by the analysis of urine. Any team member who tests positive will be terminated immediately. Subject to re-hire only if the condition set forth above is met. A team member will be subject to the same consequences of a positive test if he/she refuses testing, adulterates or dilutes the specimen, substitutes the specimen with that from another person or sends an imposter, will not sign the required forms or refuses to cooperate in the testing process in such a way that prevents completion of the test.
ConsequencesOne of the goals of our drug-free workplace program is to encourage team members to voluntarily seek help with alcohol and/or drug problems. If, however, an individual violates the policy, the consequences are serious. In the case of applicants, if he or she violates the drug-free workplace policy, the offer of employment can be withdrawn. The applicant may not reapply. If a team member violates the policy, he or she will be terminated from employment. They will not be eligible for re-hire.

ConfidentialityAll information received by Companion Animal Hospital through the drug-free workplace program is confidential communication. Access to this information is limited to those who have a legitimate need to know in compliance with relevant laws and management policies.
