About this file
This is a Drug-Free Workplace Certification attachment submitted as part of an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued by the Florida Department of Management Services for Agriculture and Lawn Equipment. The certification applies to bidders competing for a state term contract that the Department intends to award to multiple vendors on a statewide basis, though the Department reserves the right to make single or multiple awards by region or to decline all bids. Chris Molina, Purchasing Analyst, serves as the procurement officer and can be contacted at (850) 921-0030 or Christopher.Molina@dms.fl.gov. Interested vendors must submit responses through the MyFloridaMarketPlace Sourcing Event via the SAP Business Network, with all solicitation materials and addenda posted on the Vendor Information Portal (VIP).
The Drug-Free Workplace Certification requires bidders to certify implementation of a comprehensive drug-free workforce program that includes publishing workplace policies prohibiting controlled substance manufacture, distribution, or use; informing employees of dangers and available assistance programs; providing all relevant employees with copies of the policy statement; requiring employee notification of drug-related convictions within five days; imposing sanctions or requiring participation in rehabilitation programs for violations; and maintaining ongoing good faith efforts to sustain the program. When the Department receives equal bids that are otherwise eligible for award with respect to price, quality, and service, it will apply a preference under Florida Statute Section 287.087 to the bidder that submits a signed certification. The bidder's authorized representative must sign and date the form, certifying full compliance with all requirements, with false statements subject to legal penalties.

Attachment P
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.
