Preferred term

workplace drug policies  

Definition

  • Workplace drug policies can be categorized into two types: those that address drug abuse as a health issue, leading to limited opportunities provided by the employer to conserve individual employment, and those that view any association with illegal drugs by an employee or a prospective employee as a violation, leading to punitive or exclusionary actions. Many workplaces have combinations of these two types of policies. [Source: Encyclopedia of Substance Abuse Prevention, Treatment, & Recovery; Workplace Drug Policies]
