This is a Drug-Free Workplace Guidelines document applicable to all state and local contracts. The document establishes mandatory requirements for contractors to maintain drug-free workplace policies covering all employees and subcontractors performing work under the contract. Contractors must provide a drug-free work environment, post notices in conspicuous locations informing employees and applicants that unlawful manufacture, sale, distribution, dispensation, possession, or use of controlled substances or marijuana is prohibited in the workplace, and specify the actions that will be taken against violators. Additionally, contractors must state in all employee solicitations and advertisements that they maintain a drug-free workplace. These provisions apply to all subcontracts and purchase orders exceeding $10,000 and must be binding upon all subcontractors and vendors. The definition of "Drug-Free Workplace" for contract purposes means the site where work connected to the contract is performed.

No pricing terms, set-asides, award dates, contract term information, or renewal options are specified in this guidelines document, as it functions as a standard clause requirement rather than a solicitation announcement. The document does not identify specific funding sources, amounts, or incumbent contractors, as it serves as a compliance requirement applicable universally across all state and local contracts. The effective date of the guideline is noted as July 3, 2019.
