VA Form 10-0143: Certification Regarding Drug-Free Workplace Requirements for Grantees

VA Form 10-0143 is the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Certification Regarding Drug-Free Workplace Requirements for Grantees Other Than Individuals. It is a grant document for organizations, not a benefit application for Veterans. VA's form page lists it under VHA and gives no public use description.

The form says the certification is required by the regulations implementing the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988, 38 CFR 44, Subpart F, which require certification by grantees, prior to award, that they will maintain a drug-free workplace. It calls the certification a material representation of fact upon which reliance will be placed when the agency determines to award the grant.

The PDF has two pages: the seven numbered commitments on page 1, then places of performance and the signature block on page 2. You can fill out the PDF free in your browser on this page and download the result without an account.
