WHY ATTEND

For the last 20 years, business has organized and standardized practices to limit the costs caused by substance abusers in the workplace. These losses show up in lost productivity, increased absenteeism and tardiness, use of medical benefits, theft, as well as accidents and workers compensation claims.

Kentucky businesses have the opportunity to receive at least a 5% reduction for their workers’ compensation premiums if they are operating a qualified Drug-Free Workplace Program (DFWP). But . . . how does this happen? What measures does an employer need to take in order to qualify for this discount? This webinar will focus on: What constitutes a defensible DFWP; Laws that need to be considered in development including Kentucky’s Workers’ Comp. benefit law; Costs involved in becoming and maintaining a DFWP; Other savings to be sought for operating a DFWP. Whether your motivation is corporate legal liability and protections, savings on workers’ comp. premiums, qualifying for contracts, discounts in corporate insurances, or compliance at the state or federal levels, you’ll walk away better armed to operate drug-free.
