SUPR Policy Development

Custom SUPR Policy Development

A generic template won't protect you if an accident or audit occurs.
Or—worse yet—if you end up in a Courtroom.

Your written substance use policy is the foundation of your program. It clarifies what is and is not permissible, how violations are handled, and your company's eligibility for SUPR reimbursements, BWC premium discounts, and state contracts.

We create customized, defensible substance policies tailored to your regulatory needs and aligned with SUPR requirements.

Fully Reimbursable through the SUPR Grant.

Recovery-supportive substance use policy development and updates are eligible for reimbursement through the BWC SUPR Grant—up to $1,000 annually.
