SUPERVISORY TRAINING DRUG AND ALCOHOL AWARENESS PROGRAM SEGMENT 1 -
This segment consists of an introduction by the location l manager; a drug and alcohol abuse educational presentation by a health professional; an explanation of Company policy by Nuclear Operations management.
i INTRODUCTION Nuclear Operations Management ACTION Show Slide al Carolina Power & Light Company Alcohol and Drug Abuse Policy ,
CO:1MENTARY You have been asked to attend today's meeting so that J all of us can be made fully aware of the serious impact that drug and alcohol abuse can have on health, safety, and work performance, and so that as Carolina Power & Light Company supervisors you are fully aware of the Company's policy on these issues.
The tormat of today's meeting will be as follows:
after introduction to the topic, a leading health professional will talk to you about drug and alcohol abuse.
Following Dr./Mr. 's presentation, he will answer any questions you may have concerning the health and 4
safety aspect of drugs and alcohol. I will then review 4
Company policy and give you the opportunity to ask questions concerning this policy.
Handouts have been placed on each seat for you to take away with you from this meeting.
Some of you in the meeting today may be asking yourself, "Why all this special attention on drugs and alcohol right now? We had discussion on this subject over a -
year ago." The NRC has put out rules on this matter and we want to make sure all supervisors are familiar not only with oclicy, but what they are to do to implement it. There have l bceu a number of new supervisors appointed and this matter
- 4 requires constant attention. -

ACTION Show Slide #2 National / Industry Problem Affecting:
- Health
- Safety
- Productivity
- Public Confidence COMMENTARY You need not look any farther than the daily headlines to realize that this is a serious problem both nationally and in our own industry; a problem that affects the health and safety of employees, productivity, on a national and industrial level, and one that can undermine public confidence in a company such as ours, which depends on the public trust. At a nuclear generating plant, we shoulder the additional responsibility of highly sensitive material, Federal regulatory rules, a tremendous investment in plant and equipment, and the fishbowl environment that goes with it.
ACTION Show Slide #3 Health and Safety Impact COMMENTARY Although this concern is generally one for all society and nuclear public utilities to deal with, it is a very important issue for all of us at Carolina Power & Light Company.
The program that you will be involved in today is important to each ot you. For those of you who may have a i tendency to abuse drugs or alcohol, we want to let you know I
what yo.u can do to help yourself--and in clear terms, what
- might happen if you choose not to do so. For those of you who have nothing to do with drugs or alcohol, we want you to be aware that your safety and efficiency can be jeopardized
' by a co-worker who abuses drugs and alcohol on the job.
The Company--each or us--is concerned about the use and
- influence of drugs, including alcohol, on the job. Our goal -
as members of the Carolina Power & Light team is to get the i job done in a safe and efficient manner. Reaching that goal is not possible unless we can txa assured of a drug free environment. And it should be clearly understood that these remark,s pertain to manag'e ment level personnel every bit as much as to the newest employee. I am asking eacn of you to join with me in assuring that drugs and alcohol are kept off the job.

4 I would now like to introduce Dr. , who is a recognized expert in Substance Abuse. After Dr. 's presentation, I hope that you will ask any questions which may be on your mind. After all your
, questions have been answered, I will talk to you about the Company's policy on drugs and alcohol.

COMMENTARY If there are no further questions for Dr. ,
I would like to talk about the Company's policy in terms of discipline, enforcement, and alternatives. A copy of the Company's Policy Statement on alcohol and drugs is included in the Supervisor's Reference Guide you found on the seat when you came into the meeting room.
- The Company prohibits
- ,
ACTICN Slide #15 COMPANY POLICY ,
- Working under the influence of illegal drugs or alcohol-impairing fitness for
, duty.
1 COMMENTARY Ucrking when fitness is impaired by the effects of illegal drugs or alcohol: The Company has a right to expect all employees to be in condition to perform their jobs.
Fitness for duty is a condition of employment. If fitness
, is impaired, it does not matter when the drug was taken. An 1
accident can be caused as easily by a joint of marijuana smoked on the way to work, or during lunch, as if it were smoked on Company time.
ACTION Same Slide - Use, possession, distribution of drugs or controlled substances on Company time / property. -
COMMENTARY Employees who unlawfully use, distribute, or possess
' drugs or controlled substances while on Company time,or on Company property will be subject to discharge. Illegal substances will be confiscated sad turned over to the appropriate law enforcement agency.

ACTION Same Slide - Arrest for drug use, sale, or possession
- causing adverse impact on Company opera-tions.
COMMENTARY -
i Employees found to be unlawfully involved with drugs or
- controlled substances on.their own time will be subject to
+
disciplinary action up to and including discharge.
1
- The Company considers illegal drug and alcohol abuse to j
be an extremely serious matter. Company policy allows for termination even for a first offense. The Company will be fair, but we will be strict--especially with employees in i possession of or usina illegal drugs on Company property.
An employee suspected of being under the influence of drugs i or alcohol will be asked to take a fitness for duty exam.
Positive results from the exam may require the employee to be disciplined. Empl9 yees taking legal drugs for legitimate
} medical causes will naturally not be disciplined. They ;
- should be aware, though, of possible job impairment and
{ should notify their supervisor or personnel representative.
An employee who refuses to take a fitness for duty exam will
.! be considered insubordinate and will be disciplined
! accordingly.
ACTION Slide a16 - Law enforcement notification if drugs
, found.
l COMMENTARY
- - We plan to notify the proper law enforcement j authorities whenever we find drugs. That's our obligation under law. We will also cooperate with authoritias in pursuing whatever investigations or prosecutions they may choose to make.
We also reserve the right to investigate the possible r use or sale of illegal drugs in much the same way we -
investigate other illegal activity on our property. Local management will have the responsibility for working with security in conducting these investigations.

S' INFORMATION/ TRAINING ACTION Slide #17 Information
- Questions & Answers
- Supervisory training and guidelines COMMENTARY The Company has already initiated an employee assistance program.
ACTION Slide #18 Emoloyee Assistance Procram
- Conficential
- Professional counsell' ors
- Preventive while maintaining job
- Will.not prevent discipline COMMENTARY Carolina Power & Light.has an Employee Assistance Program. This program is designed to provide a highly confidential experience source of help for any employee whose personal problems have grown to the point that they seriously affect his or her ability to function on the job.
Drug- and alcohol-related problems certainly qualify.
Occasionally people find solutions to their own problems.
However, more often employees are unable to find the right resource to be of real help. For these employees, the employee assistance program is available to provide help to the employee and his/her family.
In some cases, the EAP Program representative will refer the enplayee to a professional-service or facility for help. The services of the program in itself are paid for by the Company. In addition, the medical plans ortered by the Company cover most, and sometimes all, of the cost for the protessional treatment and counseling which may be required.
The Ilmployee Assistance Program is voluntary and perscnal. Some drug and alcohol problems are the type at addictions that require medical attention. Some users may consider'them casual and perconal, but an employee's fitness and judgment extends well beyond his or her own work and affects co-workers and the Company. The employee assistance program can help an employee to get back on the right track w, - -
. - - , . . . - - . , .--.n -mi,v,.m. ..p .+--w ,,.em. ,- , , , - - - m, ,
before they jeopardize the safety and health of themselves and others. A request for assistance through the Employee Assistance Program cannot be used by an employee as a means of avoiding disciplinary action when violation of the Company's drug or alcohol abuse policy has occurred.
The message is simple.- The Company wants to keep drugs and alcohol from posing a more serious threat than they already do. We want to rid ourselves completely of their effects. We want to maintain employees dignity and safety.
Your health and safety, and your success with the Company, may very well depend on how well we all do in this regard.
It goes without saying that the problem is ours--yours and mine.
. You h, ave heard the overview on health ettects, and also a description of our policy on drugs. I will ask Dr.
to come back and talk about some of the behavioral " warning signs" that may affect an employee's performance as a result of drug or alcohol use.
Afterward, I will present to you the Company management guidelines for handling drug and/or alcohol related incidents.
[Mr. (personnel representative) is available to join me in commenting on the guidelines.] But first, Dr. .

GUIDELINES FOR HANDLING DRUG & ALCOHOL RELATED INCIDENTS-Manager CCMMENTARY Are there any other questions for Dr. ?
It not, I would like to discuss with you the guidelines for administering the Company's policy on drug and alcohol abuse. You will find a copy of the guidelines in the packet which was passed out earlier. I would like to go through each with you at this time.
GUIDELINES Manager should now go through " Management Guidelines" and discuss the Questions and Answers.
QUESTIONS - Manager Invite questions from supervisors. The personnel representative present will assist you in handling questions concerning guidelines.
CONCLUSION Conclude question time and close on a positive note using Slide 435 as follows:
COMMENTARY Thank you for your attendance and participation. Since observation is so vitally important, let's just test our powers of observation. Look at this slide for 15 seconds and count the number of F's you can see. I will only leave the slide up for 15 seconds (count).
ACTION Show slide FOR 15 SECONDS ONLY. NOW SWITCH OFF THE SLIDE PROJECTOR.
Slide 635 Finished files are the result of experimenta-tion of scientific facilities.
ASK - How many saw four F's?
- How many saw five F'b? '
- How many saw six P's?
ANSWER - 6 (Most people don't see the two F's in "of".)
COMMENTARY' You often see what you expect to see. As supervisors you need to assure yourself that you are alert to your employee's fitness for duty. As today's quis points out, we co not always see what is there.
