“The American Innovation and Manufacturing Act shows that industry, environmentalists and lawmakers can work together to phase down harmful HFCs and help the United States maintain its leadership in replacing them with climate-friendlier alternatives,” said David Doniger, senior strategic director of the Natural Resources Defense Council. AHRI president and CEO Stephen Yurek praised the leadership of Kennedy and Carper, adding: “It is our hope that the Senate will move expeditiously on this bill and that the House will shortly follow suit so that this transition can begin in earnest.”

Reasonable

Suspicion

Testing

Reasonable Suspicion Training Offered by Courthouse Concepts By now, we all know the dangers and costs associated with drug and alcohol abuse in the workplace. Having supervisors who are capable of identifying potential substance abuse at work is a must for virtually every organization, whether regulated by DOT or not. Employee drug and alcohol testing cannot be performed based on a mere hunch. Reasonable Suspicion Supervisor Training delivers the necessary tools and skills to recognize and appropriately handle employees exhibiting signs of substance abuse. To eliminate guesswork from the employee's drug and alcohol testing process, CourtHouse Concepts developed its own Reasonable Suspicion Training Program for Supervisors! This course prepares supervisors for determining whether or not reasonable suspicion exists and what to do when they suspect it.
