Our company values the health and safety of all associates. Performing work under the influence of drugs or alcohol imperils your health, safety and well-being. Being under the influence of such substances can put you and those around you at risk. It can also interfere with your ability to do your job safely and efficiently.
We may not use, be under the influence of, possess or distribute illegal drugs, controlled substances or alcohol while on company premises or when conducting company business. This also applies to lawfully prescribed medication, if such use may impair our ability to perform our jobs, or poses a direct threat to ourselves or others in the workplace. For these reasons, our company maintains a drug-and alcohol-free workplace. The only exception to this policy arises when we consume alcohol at authorized work-related events. In such cases, we may only consume the alcohol in moderation and must maintain professional behavior.
Anyone suspected of possessing alcohol, an illegal drug or a controlled substance during working hours is subject to inspection and search, with or without notice. This applies while on Timken’s premises during work hours, or at any other location while conducting business on behalf of Timken.
You are encouraged to notify your supervisor or manager if you have reason to believe illegal drugs, controlled substances or alcohol are being used on premises or in the conduct of Timken business.
For information about accessing community drug and alcohol abuse programs, rehabilitation and assistance programs, please contact a medical services representative or our Employee Assistance Program.
