About this file
This document is a Drug Free Workplace form based on Section 287.087 of the Florida Statutes, applicable to businesses bidding on state or local government contract opportunities. The form outlines six specific requirements for businesses to establish and maintain a drug-free workplace program, which can provide a preference in the bid award process when bids are otherwise equal in price, quality, and service.
The key requirements include publishing a statement prohibiting controlled substance activities in the workplace, informing employees about drug abuse dangers and available assistance programs, providing employees with a copy of the policy statement, requiring employees to notify the employer of drug-related convictions, imposing sanctions on employees convicted of drug offenses, and making a good faith effort to maintain a drug-free workplace. The form provides a certification section for a vendor's authorized representative to sign, affirming the business's compliance with these requirements. While this specific form is associated with a Santa Rosa County School Board request for insurance worksite products (RFP 23-06-WP), the drug-free workplace guidelines are a standard requirement for businesses seeking government contracts in Florida.

DRUG FREE WORKPLACE
Section 287.087 Florida Statutes
Preference shall be given to businesses with drug-free workplace programs. Whenever two or more bids which are equal with respect to price, quality, and service, are received by the State or by any political subdivision for the procurement of commodities or contractual services, a bid received from a business that certifies that it has implemented a drug-free workplace program shall be given preference in the award process.
Established procedures for processing tie bids will be followed if none of the tied vendors have a drug-free workplace program. In order to have a drug-free workplace program, a business shall:
1. Publish a statement notifying employees that the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of a controlled substance is prohibited in the workplace and specifying the actions that will be taken against employees for violations of such prohibition.
2. Inform employees about the dangers of drug abuse in the workplace, the business's policy of maintaining a drug-free workplace, any available drug counseling, rehabilitation, and employee assistance programs, and the penalties that may be imposed upon employees for drug abuse violations.
3. Give each employee engaged in providing the commodities or contractual services that are under bid a copy of the statement specified in subsection (1).
4. In the statement specified in subsection (1), notify the employees that, as a condition of working on the commodities or contractual services that are under bid, the employees will abide by the terms of the statement and will notify the employer of any conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, any violation of Chapter 893 or of any controlled substance law of the United States or any state, for a violation occurring in the workplace no later than five (5) days after such conviction.
5. Impose a sanction on, or require the satisfactory participation in a drug abuse assistance or rehabilitation program if such is available in the employee's community, by an employee who is so convicted.
6. Make a good faith effort to continue to maintain a drug-free workplace through implementation of this section.
As the person authorized to sign the statement, I certify that this firm complies fully with the above requirements.
