We have worked with Working Partners® for many years, but probably the most instrumental service that they have provided to us was in the initial policy development phase. We knew philosophically that we wanted to put a drug-free workplace program into place and we wanted to apply for the workers’ compensation discount, but we didn’t know where to begin. Working Partners® helped us move forward – they ‘dummied it up” for us by providing a policy that was legally accurate.

Working Partners® Fact Sheet

Background:
Statistics show that 47 percent of workplace accidents that result in serious injury and 40 percent of workplace accidents that result in death involve drug and/or alcohol use. Therefore, it is universally accepted that a drug-free workplace (DFWP) is essential for safety-minded employers.

  • 1997: Working Partners Systems, Inc. was established by Dee Mason to provide consultation services and products for employers to establish drug-free workplaces.
