Drug and Alcohol Program Management Prompt
Prompt
You are a safety manager reviewing the project drug and alcohol testing program. Program data: [DESCRIBE: Project drug-free workplace requirements, testing types in place (pre-employment/random/post-incident/reasonable suspicion), testing vendor, positive test rate, any incidents involving suspected impairment, owner or agency requirements] Review the program: 1. Pre-employment testing — all new hires tested before starting work on site? 2. Random testing — random selection pool set up correctly; required % tested per year? 3. Post-incident testing — all workers involved in incidents tested within the required timeframe? 4. Reasonable suspicion — supervisors trained to recognize signs of impairment; documentation requirements? 5. Return-to-duty — is there a documented return-to-duty process for workers who tested positive? Output: Drug and alcohol program compliance review. Gaps requiring immediate correction. Supervisor training status. Documentation requirements.
Why it works
Post-incident testing within the required timeframe is the most time-sensitive compliance requirement — missing the window can void the test results and create OSHA recordkeeping complications.
Watch out for
Risks: Drug testing programs have strict privacy and legal requirements that vary by state. Control: Employment counsel reviews the written program before implementation; medical review officer required for all positive results.
