About this file
The document is Bid Form 8C: Drug-Free Preference Statement for the City of South Daytona, Florida, specifically related to the Fire Department Kitchen Remodel project. This form outlines the requirements for businesses to demonstrate 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 form requires businesses to publish employee statements prohibiting controlled substance use, inform employees about drug abuse dangers and workplace policies, provide employees with written statements, and commit to maintaining a drug-free workplace.
The form serves as a certification document where bidding firms must affirm their compliance with six specific requirements related to drug-free workplace standards, including publishing employee notifications, providing drug abuse information, distributing workplace policy statements, requiring employee reporting of drug convictions, imposing sanctions or rehabilitation requirements for convicted employees, and making a good faith effort to maintain a drug-free workplace. The document must be completed, signed by an authorized representative, and notarized before submission with the bid for the Fire Department Kitchen Remodel project, which involves installation of appliances, cabinets, countertops, and sink.

BID FORM 8C:
Drug-Free Preference Statement
IDENTICAL TIE BIDS - Preference shall be given to businesses with drug-free workplace programs. Whenever two or more bids, proposals, statements, or replies that are equal with respect to price, quality, and service are received by the city 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 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 Section 287.087, Florida Statutes.
As an authorized representative of the firm, I certify that this firm complies fully with the above requirements.
