501 - Procedures for Drug Testing Certain Employees
Section 501-6.0 - Procedures

6.1.1 Upon arrival at the worksite, selected employees will be given and acknowledge receipt of a Chain of Custody form. The employee must report to a designated collection site and provide a sample within twenty-four (24) hours of notification.

6.1.2 Employees notified to report must report for testing to the designated collection site. No requests to be excused or rescheduled shall be granted. Any failure to report, refusal to be tested or refusal to cooperate with the testing procedure will result in the removal from the workplace without pay and will be considered as a positive result.

6.2.1 All employees are subject to random testing.

6.2.2 Selection is to be based on a computerized random selection of employee testing numbers, not names.

6.2.3 Monthly, the drug testing contractor will randomly select EMPLIDs equivalent to 25% of the random testing population per quarter. Because the selection process is random, some employees may not be tested within a year, while others may be tested more than once.

6.3.1 In the event of reasonable suspicion, the facility head will contact human resources, who will make a determination and contact the contractor if a decision is made to test.

6.4.1 In the event of an incident triggered event, the facility head will contact human resources, who will make a determination and contact the contractor if a decision is made to test.

6.5.1 Before any employee is allowed to return to duty, the employee must have a verified negative drug screen performed by the Contractor.
