The OPP has laid out the ground rules for its members smoking pot...report for work fit for duty!
"The OPP is committed to the health, safety , and wellness of our members and the communities we serve," says a news release. "Maintaining a drug and alcohol-free workplace is a crucial step to fulfilling that commitment.
"As a safety-sensitive workplace, all OPP members must report to work fit for duty. A member is fit for duty when they are in a physical, mental and emotional state that allows the individual to perform assigned duties competently and in a manner that does not compromise or threaten the safety or health of that individual or others, the environment, or OPP property," states OPP Commissioner Vince Hawkes.
“Our policy remains – all members must report to work fit for duty. The health and well-being of all our members enables the OPP to continuously provide effective support to our communities,” says Hawkes.
Reporting to work fit for duty requires a member be without limitations resulting from, but not limited to, all drugs (including cannabis, over-the-counter and prescription medication) and/or alcohol.
