Drug-Free Workplace Grant Program
BWC has safety grants available for employers participating in the state's Drug-Free Workplace Program (DFWP) and Drug-Free EZ Program (DF-EZ). Ohio state-funded or public employers who participate in either of the previously mentioned programs are eligible to apply and can receive grant money from BWC to offset their costs.
Private employers are eligible for a 2-to-1 matching grant, up to a maximum of $10,000. Public employers are eligible for a 3-to-1 matching grant up to a maximum of $15,000. DFWP and DF-EZ program participants can use these funds to help meet any of the following drug-free requirements:
- Development of a written substance policy
- Legal review of the policy
- Employee education
- Supervisor training
- Employee assessment, when included in a BWC-approved consortium package
