About this file
This is a Drug-Free Workplace Certification attachment for the Natural Gas Supply ITB V2 procurement issued by the Florida Department of Management Services. The certification form applies when the Department receives equal bids that are eligible for award with respect to price, quality, and service. In such cases, the Department will apply a preference under Section 287.087, Florida Statutes, to bidders that have signed and submitted the certification confirming implementation of a drug-free workforce program. The document outlines the required components of an acceptable drug-free workplace program, including publishing statements prohibiting controlled substance use in the workplace, informing employees about drug abuse dangers and available assistance programs, distributing the policy statement to all employees engaged in providing commodities or services under the bid, requiring employee notification of drug-related convictions within five days, imposing sanctions or requiring participation in rehabilitation programs for violators, and making good faith efforts to maintain a drug-free workplace.
The certification must be signed by an authorized representative of the bidder and submitted with the bid response to MyFloridaMarketPlace Sourcing Event via the SAP Business Network. False statements on the certification are punishable under law. The form requires the bidder's name, signature, title, printed name, and date of the authorized person submitting the bid. This certification serves as a tie-breaker mechanism to award contracts when multiple eligible bids are received at equal pricing, quality, and service levels, incentivizing bidders to demonstrate commitment to workplace safety and employee welfare standards.

Attachment H
Certification of Drug Free Workplace
In the event there is no multiple award contemplated in the ITB, and the Department receives equal Bids eligible for award, the Department will comply with Florida Statutes in accordance with the ‘Equal Bids’ section of the ITB. When the Department receives equal Bids eligible for award, with respect to price, quality and service, the Department will apply a preference in accordance with Section 287.087, F.S., to the Bidder that has signed and submitted this form with its Bid certifying it has implemented a drug-free workforce program in accordance with the provisions below.
I certify that the Bidder has implemented a drug-free workplace program that includes the following:
(1) Publishing a statement notifying employees that the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession or use of a controlled substance is prohibited in the workplace and specifies the actions that will be taken against employees for violations of such prohibition.
(2) Informing 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) Giving each employee engaged in providing the commodities or contractual services that are provided under the Bid a copy of the statement specified in (1) above.
(4) In the statement specified in (1), above, notifying 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 days after such conviction.
(5) Imposing a sanction on or requiring 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) Making a good faith effort to continuing to maintain a drug-free workplace through implementation of these provisions.
As the person authorized by the Bidder to sign the attachment, I certify that the Bidder complies fully with the above requirements. False statements are punishable under law.
