RM projects and worksites are to be free from drugs and alcohol.

Every RM employee, contractor, sub-contractor or their employees working on a RM-related project are subject to testing and search for drugs and alcohol. This could include but is not limited to pre-employment screening, post accident, reasonable cause and random screening.

Failure to comply with this program can result in disciplinary action of up to and including immediate termination of the individual involved. Additionally, failure to enforce this program could lead to the termination of the contractor’s contract.

Everyone is expected to report Fit for Duty, and remain fit throughout their work day or shift. Anyone found with drugs or alcohol on site will be immediately removed from the project/site. Anyone suspected of excessive alcohol consumption from the previous evening and/or shows signs of being hung over will be sent home for the day. If it happens a second time then the individual will be removed from the project.

If unexpected circumstances arise where a contract worker is requested to perform services outside of their regularly scheduled hours and has recently used Alcohol or Drugs, the individual is expected to request that responsibility be delegated to another contract worker. This request will not be considered a breach of contract.
