Drug and Alcohol Awareness Courses

About Our Drug and Alcohol Awareness Courses

Drug and alcohol awareness courses are workplace training programs that educate employees and supervisors on substance misuse risks, impairment recognition, and the practices needed to maintain safe, drug-free work environments. These courses are designed to support employer safety programs and workplace policy awareness across industries where impairment poses a direct risk to worker safety.

This category addresses workplace safety and policy awareness related to drugs, alcohol, opioids, and marijuana across a range of course formats and audience types. Rather than a single standalone program, it represents a collection of substance-specific and role-relevant training options tailored to different workplace needs.

Drug and Alcohol Awareness Course Certificates & OSHA Requirements

OSHA does not mandate a standalone drug and alcohol awareness certification. Employers determine when training is required to address workplace impairment hazards and are responsible for maintaining training documentation as part of their overall safety program.

Retraining timing is employer-driven or triggered by policy changes, incidents, or regulatory updates. Certain DOT-regulated employers may also be subject to supervisor reasonable suspicion training requirements under 49 CFR Part 382, depending on applicability.

The courses in this category are awareness-level training only and do not provide regulatory authorization or certification.
