18、g-free workplace statement? You must publish a statement that (a) Tells your employees that the un-lawful manufacture, distribution, dis-pensing, possession, or use of a con-trolled substance is prohibited in your workplace; (b) Specifies the actions that you will take against employees for violatin

You must require that a copy of the statement described in 32.205 be given to each employee who will be engaged in the performance of any Federal award. 32.215 What must I
21、 include in my drug-free awareness program?

23、atement as described in 32.205 and an ongoing awareness program as described in 32.215, you must publish the state-ment and establish the program by the time given in the following table: If . . . then you . . .

27、25 What actions must I take con-cerning employees who are con-victed of drug violations in the workplace? There are two actions you must take if an employee is convicted of a drug violation in the workplace: (a) First, you must notify Federal agencies if an employee who is engaged in the performance

31、ended; or (2) Require the employee to partici-pate satisfactorily in a drug abuse as-sistance or rehabilitation program ap-proved for these purposes by a Federal, State or local health, law enforcement, or other appropriate agency. 32.230 How and when must I identify workplaces? (a) You must identif
32、y all known workplaces under each DOT award. A failure to do so is a violation of your drug-free workplace requirements. You may identify the workplacesl (1) To the DOT official that is mak-ing the award, either at the time of ap-plication or upon award; or (2) In documents that you keep on file in
33、your offices during the perform-ance of the award, in which case you must make the information available for inspection upon request by DOT of-ficials or their designated representa-tives. (b) Your workplace identification for an award must include the actual ad-dress of buildings (or parts of build
34、-ings) or other sites where work under the award takes place. Categorical de-scriptions may be used (e.g., all vehi-cles of a mass transit authority or State highway department while in op-eration, State employees in each local unemployment office, performers in concert halls or radio studios). (c)
35、If you identified workplaces to the DOT awarding official at the time of application or award, as described in paragraph (a)(1) of this section, and any workplace that you identified changes during the performance of the award, you must inform the DOT awarding official.
