Alcohol and Drugs

The City of St. Louis does not permit the use of alcohol, controlled substances, or illegal drugs on the job. Additionally, impaired job performance, caused by the non-job usage of alcohol, controlled substances, or illegal drugs, will not be permitted. It is the responsibility of the employee to notify their immediate supervisor when the employee is using any prescription drugs which may impact job performance.

Employees using prescription drugs should advise both the doctor, and pharmacist, of their job requirements so that possible side effects, which could create a hazard for the employee, can be considered by the health professional.

Anyone found to be under the influence of alcohol, controlled substances, or drugs, is subject to removal from the work site and disciplinary action; up to and including dismissal from the City work force, in accordance with Administrative Regulation No. 120.

An Employee Assistance Program is available to City employees. Affected employees are encouraged to utilize the Employee Assistance Program to seek rehabilitation services. Supervisors will provide the necessary information.
