What is the Drug Free Workplace Program (DFWP)?The Drug-Free Safety Program (DFSP) in Ohio is designed to help employers create a safer workplace by addressing substance use and misuse. The program offers multiple levels of participation: Basic level - Employers participating at the DFSP Basic level are eligible for a 4-percent premium rebate as long as they satisfy all Basic level requirements. See DFSP requirements below. Advanced level - Employers participating at the DFSP Advanced level are eligible for a 7-percent premium rebate as long as they satisfy all basic program requirements. Comparable programs - Employers implementing a program comparable to the DFSP are not eligible for a premium rebate. However, Ohio law requires all companies - in state or out of state - that want to bid or work on state of Ohio public improvement/construction projects to have a drug-free program no matter how many employees they have. This applies to contractors and all levels of subcontractors who provide labor on a state project or supervise workers on state construction sites. Even employers with no employees must have at least a drug-free program in place that meets the DFSP Comparable requirements specified below. Source: Ohio Bureau of Workers Compensation
