Background and Discussion:
Harris County is committed to providing a safe, productive, and secure workplace and has adopted policies for
a drug-free and alcohol-free workplace to meet that goal. This renewal to UNIF Health as the primary

Expected Impact:
Employees need to report to work in an appropriate mental and physical condition to perform their job safely
