Fitness for Duty Policy

Fitness for Duty Policy

 

Hines Health Services has renamed their Alcohol & Drug Policy; it will now be referred to as Fitness for Duty Policy.

Why?

Employees have a responsibility to be fit for duty, irrespective of what the cause of impairment is, whether it be alcohol, drugs, or anything else, such as fatigue.

With a more positive connotation than the previous Alcohol & Drug Policy term, Fitness for Duty Policy more accurately reflects the requirement that employees be fit for duty, in addition to adhering to the specific prohibitions on alcohol and drugs in the workplace.
