DWD Develops Database for Employers' Substance Abuse Prevention Plans on Public Work Projects
June 17, 2024
The Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (DWD) has launched an online, searchable database of substance abuse prevention policies for all contractors and subcontractors who perform public works projects.
Wisconsin employers must have a written policy in place for the prevention of substance abuse among employees before working on a public works or public utility project. An employer's substance abuse prevention plan must cover the employer's drug testing requirements and the procedure for notifying employees when violations occur.
