Common use of TESTING CIRCUMSTANCES Clause in Contracts

TESTING CIRCUMSTANCES. The Department may, in its sole discretion, conduct pre-duty, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, random, and return-to-duty alcohol and drug testing. Employees will be subject to testing only while on duty or while on University property (including while in University vehicles or immediately after driving University vehicles). The results of such tests may be retained by the Department and are the property of the Department. 1. Pre-duty testing may be conducted by the Department after a conditional offer of employment has been extended and before an applicant commences his/her employment withthe Department. A positive pre-duty test result, or a refusal to be tested, will result in disqualification from employment, regardless of an applicant's participation, or willingness to participate, in a rehabilitation program. 2. Post-accident testing may be conducted when an employee has been involved in an accident on (or in) University property or while on University business. 3. An employee may be subject to reasonable suspicion drug testing whenever a Department management team member has grounds to suspect that the employee has used, or is under the influence of, drugs. An employee may be subject to reasonable suspicion alcohol testing whenever a Department management team member has grounds to suspect that the employee has used, or is under the influence of, alcohol while on (or in) University property or on University business. 4. Random testing may be conducted periodically at the discretion of the Department on dates and at times to be determined by the Department. If random testing is put into effect, the tests will be conducted randomly in ratios to be determined by the Department. All employees shall be eligible to be selected for each random test period determined by the Department. Therefore, an employee may be selected for testing multiple times during any year, provided a random selection method is used. 5. Return-to-duty testing may be conducted when an employee, who received any form of discipline short of termination for violating the Standards of Conduct set forth in this policy, is about to return to duty after completion of a prescribed substance abuse counseling program, or after serving a suspension. Return-to- duty testing may also be conducted when an employee voluntarily seeks treatment for a substance abuse problem, and is about to return to duty after obtaining such treatment. Employees subject to return-to-duty testing must agree, as a condition of their return that they will also be subject to random discretionary drug and/or alcohol testing during a period not to exceed 24 months immediately following the date of return.
