Alcohol or Other Drug Use in the Workplace

The use of alcohol or other drugs by an employee may also be inconsistent with the company's obligations under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015.

It is the intention of this policy to minimise the negative impact on the workplace of the use of alcohol or other drugs.

Managers are authorised to forbid a company member from driving a company vehicle if they have reason to believe that they have been drinking or are otherwise intoxicated.

Some prescribed medication may affect an employee's ability to work safely. Supervisors or managers should be informed where an employee or their doctor believes this is the case. The supervisor or manager will ensure the confidentiality of this information.

The Manager/Supervisor must inform Richard Emmett or Debbie Walford as soon as possible if this happens.
