Ced identification (Type of identification) Form PUR 7068 (Rev. .06/11192) DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE POLICY Drug abuse is a concern facing every part of our society. It is a costly and dangerous problem involving lost productivity, increased absenteeism, poor perfonnance, more on-the-job injuries, higher medical costs and rising crime rates. HOR, Inc. and its subsidiaries, hereinafter "HOR", is committed to providing its employees a safe work environment and to promoting high standards of employee health. Equally important is HOR's commitment to providing its clients the highest level of service. Consistent with this philosophy, the manufacture, distribution, possession, use or unfitness for work because of drugs is prohibited while you are working or while you are on HOR premises. "Drug" includes alcoholic beverages and prescription drugs, as well as illegal inhalants and illegal drugs. This policy excludes prescription drugs when taken as directed by a licensed doctor. Although we realize drug abuse can be successfully treated and are willing to work with employees who may suffer from such problems, it is the employee's responsibility to seek assistance before drug problems lead to disciplinary action. Once a violation of this policy occurs, an employee's willingness to seek company or outside assistance will not excuse the violation and will not necessarily prevent corrective disciplinary action. It is a condition of your employment with HOR that you: 1) Abide by the terms of this policy and 2) Notify HDR's Legal Department of any criminal drug conviction occurring in the workplace no later than five (5) days after the date of such a conviction. This infonnation will remain confidential, except as necessary to fulfill the requirements of this policy or to comply with applicable laws and regulations. If you are so convicted or are found to be in violation of this policy in any manner you will be subject to discipline and discharge and may be required, as a condition of your continued employment with HDR, to satisfactorily participate in a drug abuse assistance or rehabilitation program that has been approved for such purposes by a federal, state or local health, law enforcement or other appropriate agency. You will also be placed on pennanent probation with HOR. A second conviction or policy violation will result in your immediate termination from HOR Drug and alcohol testing on a scheduled, random or cause basis may be implemented if required by a contract with a client and where not prohibited by state law. Employees effected by such testing will be provided additional details. A copy of the policy may be obtained from the Human Resources Department, HDR, Inc., 8404 Indian Hills Drive, Omaha, NE 68114. While we have no intention of interfering with the private lives our employees, we expect employees to report to work in a condition that will allow them to perfonn their duties in a safe, effective and efficient manner. Involvement with drugs off-the-job, as well as on-the-job, can present a substantial risk not only to the user but to others and use of these drugs may be a sign of chemical dependency. Chemical dependency can be treated; assistance regarding drug counseling and rehabilitation services may be obtained through the Employee Assistance Program (where applicable) or by contacting your family physician, local hospital; a drug treatment facility, local mental health agency or a member of the clergy. Human Resources or your supervisor can.be of assistance in determining what insurance and company benefits are available to help.
