Smoking and alcohol use

Smoking and Alcohol Use Whilst On Assignment

It is an offence to smoke on any premises within England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland. Temporary workers who undertake assignments in Service Users own homes must only smoke in a designated area which has been agreed with the Service User or advocate. Details of this designated area will be noted in the Service Users Care Plan.

Agency Workers may not consume alcohol for any reason whatsoever while on assignment. Agency workers must not attend any assignment in any way inebriated, under influence, or smelling of alcohol. Excellence Care Services takes this matter seriously and Agency workers will face immediate exclusion.
