 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988 - Prohibits any executive agency from making Federal financial assistance available to, or entering into a contract with, any entity (including any educational institution) that fails to maintain drug-free workplaces. Makes such prohibition inapplicable if the executive agency head determines that: (1) the entity in question implemented measures sufficient to maintain drug-free workplaces; or (2) withholding such assistance, or failing to enter into such a contract, would severely disrupt the entity's operation to the detriment of the Federal Government or the general public.
