Common use of Employee Testing Clause in Contracts

Employee Testing. Employees shall not be subjected to random medical testing involving urine or blood analysis or other similar or related tests for the purpose of discovering possible drug or alcohol abuse. If, however, objective evidence exists establishing reasonable cause to believe an employee’s work performance is impaired due to drug or alcohol abuse, the City will require the employee to undergo a medical test consistent with the conditions as set forth in the Policy. Indications of impaired behavior or a substance abuse problem shall include the odor of alcohol on the breath, dilated or constricted pupils, accident pattern, abnormal behavior or performance for that specific employee.
