Policy

5.1 Drug Free Workplace

UNMC prohibits employees from the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession, or use of alcohol and/or a controlled substance on UNMC property. The term "substance" refers to drug or chemical compounds that are controlled by local, state, or federal law. UNMC complies with the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988, as amended.

Conviction of a crime related to the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation or use of alcohol and/or a controlled substance may result in a fine, a prison sentence, or both.

5.2 UNMC Position on Chemical Dependency

UNMC supports the position that chemical dependency is a disease that can endanger the health and well being of students, employees, and faculty and can have a negative effect on the public they serve. UNMC advocates treatment and rehabilitation for affected students, employees, and faculty in a manner that first protects the public, while allowing a reasonable opportunity for recovery and re-entry into the workplace/classroom. Chemical dependency is recognized as a disease, and employee relations issues will be administered from this philosophy and in accordance with all legal requirements of state and federal law.

UNMC does not illegally discriminate in its academic program or employment practices against individuals who are in recovery from chemical dependency. UNMC takes a community leadership role in health care professional education, research, and public education about substance use, abuse, and dependency.

5.3 Employee Requirements for a Drug-free Workplace

Compliance with this policy is a term and condition of employment at UNMC.

UNMC employees must notify their department heads of any criminal drug statute convictions for violations occurring in the workplace no later than five (5) days after such conviction. Under the compliance provisions of the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988, UNMC shall notify the appropriate federal agency within ten (10) days of receiving notice of a criminal conviction for a violation occurring in the workplace for employees who are paid under federally-funded grants.

5.4 Employment Actions as Part of the Drug-free Workplace

UNMC employees will be subject to the corrective and disciplinary action as outlined in the Corrective and Disciplinary Policy.

Any violation of the Employee Health and Safety Policy, including unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession, or use of a controlled substance on the UNMC campus, any criminal drug statute conviction for a violation occurring in the workplace, or working while under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance, can result in disciplinary actions up to and including termination for cause.
