Drug and Alcohol Policy Standard for Contractors
_____________________________________________________________________
Overview
SaskEnergy Incorporated and its subsidiaries (collectively and individually referred to as the "Company") place a priority on minimizing health and safety risks associated with its business activities. The inappropriate use of Unauthorized Substances and/or Unlawful Substances, including drugs, alcohol and medication, may have serious adverse effects on health, safety and job performance. This in turn can negatively impact other personnel working on site, members of the public and the environment. For these reasons, appropriate measures are necessary to ensure the safe and successful conduct of the Company's operations. These measures are explained in the Company's Drug & Alcohol Policy (the "Policy") and in this Standard for Contractors.
Scope
This Standard applies to all Contractors and Contract Workers performing Safety Sensitive activities, as defined by the Company, in all circumstances when on Company Sites or performing Company Business.
General Requirement
Contractors are expected to enforce the requirements of the Company's Policy among their employees, subcontractors and agents, who are all considered to be Contract Workers for the purposes of this Standard, when assigned to Company Business or to perform work on Company Sites. Contractors must have an alcohol and drug policy in place with requirements that meet or exceed those set out in the Company's Policy in order to respond to any violations of the Policy. Where it is impractical for sole proprietors and other very small Contractors to establish their own policy and testing services, they will be contractually required to comply with the terms of the Company's Policy.
