Drug free workplaces are employment settings where all employees adhere to a program of policies and activities designed to provide a safe workplace, discourage alcohol and drug abuse and encourage treatment, recovery and the return to work of those employees with such abuse problems. The intent of the program is to educate adults on the problems relating to substance abuse. This empowers the individual and the family which results in a stronger community.

Drug-free workplaces are places of business where all employees are expected to adhere to a set of policies and practices designed to create a safe environment and discourage both alcohol and drug abuse. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, such workplaces typically have four components: drug testing, employee assistance programs, prevention activities, and policies specifying consequences for violating the rules. Workplaces that adopt drug-free policies can see a number of benefits, including reduced absenteeism, improved morale, and increased productivity. For employees struggling with substance abuse problems, drug-free workplaces can provide much-needed support and resources for recovery. In addition to employee assistance programs, these workplaces often educate their staff on the risks and consequences of substance abuse. By empowering individuals to make healthy choices, drug-free workplaces can create a safer and more productive environment for everyone involved.
