    This policy applies to all applicants and employees performing safety-sensitive functions as defined by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and Burgundy Timber, Inc. It incorporates all Company and DOT-required rules regarding drug and alcohol use, testing, workplace conduct, and compliance.

    Burgundy Timber, Inc. maintains a drug-free and alcohol-free workplace. The use, possession, sale, distribution, or being under the influence of illegal drugs, controlled substances (without a valid prescription), or alcohol while performing safety-sensitive duties is strictly prohibited. Employees may not perform any safety-sensitive functions if using marijuana, even if medically prescribed, as FMCSA regulations do not recognize medical marijuana exemptions.

    Safety-sensitive functions include, but are not limited to, operating a commercial motor vehicle (CMV), inspecting equipment, waiting to load or unload, attending to a disabled vehicle, loading or unloading freight, repairing a CMV, or any activity that directly affects CMV safety.

    Employees are prohibited from:

    Burgundy Timber conducts Pre-Employment, Random, Reasonable Suspicion, Post-Accident, Return-to-Duty, and Follow-Up testing as required by FMCSA regulations and company policy. All pre-employment applicants must complete a drug test and receive a verified negative result before beginning safety-sensitive work. Employees selected for random tests must submit immediately when notified. Employees exhibiting signs of impairment—including slurred speech, unsteady movement, erratic behavior, or the smell of alcohol or drugs—are subject to Reasonable Suspicion testing.

    Post-accident testing is required in accordance with DOT rules, including accidents involving fatalities, tow-aways, or injuries requiring medical treatment when the driver receives a citation.

    All drug and alcohol test results are confidential and may be discussed only between the employee, the Medical Review Officer (MRO), and authorized company officials. Employees may be disqualified from workers’ compensation benefits under state law if they test positive after an accident.

    The Company also complies with FMCSA Clearinghouse requirements. By applying for or accepting employment, employees acknowledge that Burgundy Timber, Inc. may conduct limited queries of the FMCSA Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse and obtain necessary drug and alcohol violation information, past employer testing history, and return-to-duty status.

    Employees must also comply with all drug and alcohol policies of clients for whom Burgundy Timber performs work. Violations of client-mandated testing or substance rules may result in removal from job assignments or termination.

    The Company reserves the right to conduct unannounced searches or investigations of company property—including lockers, desks, vehicles, tools, and equipment. Employee vehicles and personal belongings such as bags, lunch boxes, toolboxes, purses, and containers brought onto company property may also be inspected. Refusal to cooperate with any investigation or search will result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination.

    Any violation of this policy—including refusal to test, positive test results, impairment while on duty, possession of prohibited substances, or noncompliance with federal or company rules—may result in immediate removal from safety-sensitive duties, disciplinary action, or termination.

    By acknowledging this policy, employees confirm they understand their responsibilities, the testing requirements, prohibited conduct, and the consequences of violations under FMCSA regulations and Burgundy Timber, Inc. policy.

  • Antidiscrimination & Anti- Harassment Policy

    Burgundy Timber Inc. will not condone, permit or tolerate any form of discrimination and/or harassment by or against any employee, customer, vendor, independent contractor or other individual with whom our employees come in contact with in connection with their employment with Burgundy Timber, Inc. based upon age, race, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, disability or other protected class or characteristic established under applicable federal, state, or local statute or ordinance.

    Sexual harassment is a form of illegal sex discrimination. Sexual harassment refers to behavior that is unwelcome, personally offensive, and which interferes with our work effectiveness. Federal law defines unlawful sexual harassment as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature, whether by male or female, when (1) submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's employment, (2) submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as a basis for employment decisions affecting such individual, or (3) such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment.

    Individuals who believe they have been subjected to discrimination or harassment as described above or have questions about whether certain conduct is unlawful should immediately speak to .their supervisor or Clint Beckham. This is particularly important involving sexual harassment where there can be uncertainty about what is unlawful conduct.

    Supervisors who receive complaints of discrimination or harassment or who are made aware of conduct that may constitute discrimination or harassment must immediately notify Clint Beckham.
