About this file
This is a Drug-Free Workplace Certification form required by the City of Tallahassee for the Substation Battery Replacement contract opportunity in Florida, governed by Section 287.087 of the Florida Statutes. The form establishes requirements for businesses bidding on state and local contracts to demonstrate implementation of a drug-free workplace program. Bidders must certify compliance with six specific requirements: publishing a workplace drug prohibition statement to employees, informing employees about drug abuse dangers and available assistance programs, distributing the prohibition statement to all employees engaged in contract work, requiring employees to notify the employer of any controlled substance convictions within five days, imposing sanctions or requiring rehabilitation program participation for violations, and maintaining good faith efforts to sustain a drug-free workplace. The certification provides a competitive preference advantage when bids are otherwise equal in price, quality, and service.
The form requires an authorized company representative to sign and return the certification, affirming that the firm fully complies with all stated requirements. False statements are subject to legal penalties. This certification is a mandatory prerequisite for contract consideration and serves as both a compliance verification mechanism and a competitive differentiator for businesses that have established comprehensive drug-free workplace programs.

CERTIFICATION OF A DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE
Section 287.087 of the Florida Statutes provides that, whenever two or more bids, proposals, or replies that 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, proposal, or reply received from a business that certifies that it has implemented a drug-free workplace program shall be given preference in the award process. 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, as a condition of working on the commodities or contractual services that are under Bid, the employee 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 any employee who is so convicted.
6) Make a good faith effort to continue to maintain a drug-free workplace through implementation of this section.
Please sign below and return this form to certify that your business has a drug-free workplace program.
