About this file
Exhibit A-6 is a Certification of Drug-Free Workplace Program document related to a state procurement process, specifically for the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) 007-24/25. The document outlines a preference policy for businesses with drug-free workplace programs in the event of tied bids, providing a competitive advantage to companies that implement comprehensive workplace drug prevention strategies.
The certification requires businesses to establish and maintain a drug-free workplace program by publishing employee notifications about controlled substance prohibitions, informing employees about drug abuse dangers and consequences, distributing policy statements, requiring employee notification of drug-related convictions, imposing sanctions on employees convicted of drug offenses, and demonstrating a good faith effort to maintain a drug-free work environment. Businesses seeking to qualify must complete the certification form, which includes spaces for the respondent's name, authorized official's signature, printed name, and title, thereby formally attesting to their compliance with the specified drug-free workplace requirements.

EXHIBIT A-6
CERTIFICATION OF DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE PROGRAM
In the event of Identical or Tie Bids/Proposals: Preference shall be given to businesses with drug-free workplace programs. Whenever two or more bids which 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 received from a business that certifies that it has implemented a drug-free work place program shall be given preference in the award process. Established procedures for processing tied awards 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 this section.
As the person authorized to sign the statement, I certify that this firm complies fully with the above requirements.
