        Drug & Alcohol Use†

        Diversified  has  a  strong  commitment  to  provide  a  safe  workplace  for  its  employees.  Consistent  with  that
        commitment, Diversified has adopted an alcohol and drug-free work site policy. Our policy prohibits the use,
        sale, distribution, manufacture or possession of alcohol, illegal drugs and drug paraphernalia, the unauthorized
        use  of  prescription  drugs,  and  the  misuse  of  any  legally  obtained  drug  (prescriptions  or  over-the-counter
        medications) on company premises, at any location at which company business is conducted (including company
        and private vehicles), and while on company time. In addition, this policy requires employee to report to work
        free of the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs. Employees who are taking prescription drugs or over-the-counter
        drugs that may affect their performance should discuss their situation with their healthcare provider before
        reporting to work. Any violation of this policy will result in corrective action, up to and including termination of
        employment.
