Why have a drug free workplace?
Implementing and enforcing a drug free workplace program is an important way companies can protect themselves, as well as their workers' safety and health. The goal of these policies is to prevent impairment and improve safety by setting standards and holding workers accountable. Having a well established drug testing program does not mean you do not trust or like your employees. It means that you care enough about their safety and workplace security to protect them, and yourself, from the effects of on-the-job alcohol and drug abuse.
