When a Test May Be Compelled. There shall be no random, across-the-board, or routine drug testing of employees, except as provided by Section 26.6 or as is otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the parties. Where there is reasonable suspicion to believe that an em- ployee is impaired due to being under the influence of drugs or alcohol while on duty, that employee may be required to report for drug/alcohol testing. When a company level officer has reasonable suspicion to believe that an employee is impaired due to being under the influence, that officer shall have the Assistant Chief or their designee confirm that suspicion prior to any order to submit to drug/alcohol testing. At the time the employee is ordered to submit to testing the City shall notify the designated Union Representative on duty and if none is on duty, the City shall make a reasonable effort to contact an off duty designated Union Representative. Refusal of an employee to comply with the order for a drug/alcohol screening will be considered as a refusal of a direct order and will be cause for disciplinary action up to and including discharge. It is understood that drug or alcohol tests may be required under the following conditions: (1) when an employee has been arrested or indicted for conduct involving illegal drug related activity on or off duty; (2) when an employee is involved in an on-the-job injury causing reasonable suspicion of illegal drug use or alcohol abuse; (3) when an employee is involved in an on-duty accident where there is reasonable suspicion of illegal drug use or alcohol abuse; (4) where an employee has experienced excessive absenteeism or tardiness under circumstances giving rise to a suspicion of off-duty drug or alcohol abuse. The above examples do not provide an exclusive list of circumstances which may give rise to testing. Other circumstances may give rise to testing provided they conform to the reasonable suspicion standard.
