Any employee who fails to notify the City within five (5) days after they are convicted of a criminal drug offense for a violation faking place in the workplace or while conducting City business will be terminated from the employ of the City. 3. Any employee convicted of a criminal drug offense regardless of when or where that act takes place will be terminated from the employ of the City. 4. The City shall provide employees and supervisors with a positive program of drug education and make everyone aware of help that is available for such a problem. C. Call Out. The parties recognize that employees may be placed in a conflict arising from the fact that employees who are not on standby are not prohibited from consuming alcohol or legal drugs while off duty, but are subject to emergency call out during off-duty hours. Accordingly, when employees are notified of any emergency call out from off-duty, the following procedure shall apply. 1. The employee called out shall advise the department representative notifying him if he has consumed alcohol or legal drugs during the day of the call out and the extent of such activity. 2. The employee in charge of the call out shall assess the employee's condition and fitness for duty in accordance with the .04 standard for impairment set forth in this section, and either assign him to duty or, if the 03.10.04. DRUG.ALCOHOL. POLICY 1 employee is determined to be impaired, will not allow him to sign in for duty. This provision shall not authorize the employee in charge of the call out to order an employee who is contacted for a call out to submit to a test for blood alcohol content unless otherwise required or authorized by law. 3. Any employee who reports for the call out without informing the department of his consumption of alcohol or legal drugs as required in paragraph 1 above shall not be allowed to work if he appears to be impaired and shall not be paid for reporting. D. Voluntary Referral: It is specifically agreed that no employee shall be disciplined or the subject of adverse employment action for the first instance where the employee notifies the Employer that he has a problem with legal prescription drugs or alcohol use, and voluntarily seeks assistance prior to initiation of an investigation of suspected drug or alcohol abuse by the employee. In the event that an employee who has notified the department as stated in Phis section is disciplined for the drug or alcohol abuse after an investigation is initiated by the employer, the employer shall, upon the employee's request, provide the employee with written documentation of the date an investigation was initiated. Such employees shall be referred by the managerial employee who is nofified fo the City's employee assistance program for confidential counseling and treatment. Such voluntary participation shall not confer immunity from discipline for any misconduct other than the substance abuse. The managerial employee shall not divulge any information received from the employee who voluntarily seeks the help of the employee assistance program except within the City administration on a strict need to know basis. Information concerning the employee's voluntary referral shall not be disseminated outside of the City administration, except wifh the employee's written authorization or if required, pursuant to legal discovery. Such voluntary referral to the employee assistance program, however, does not relieve the employee from the responsibility to adequately perform their job. In addition, voluntary submittal does not eliminate the employee from the requirements to take required drug or alcohol tests as described in this Article. E. Disciplinary Action for Confirmed Positive -Alcohol or Legal Drugs Other Than Valid Prescriptions. 1. First Positive. The firsf confirmed positive test result will be cause for disciplinary action up to and including a thirty (30) days disciplinary suspension. The employee must agree to the following conditions: (1) the employee will be mandatorily referred to the City's Employee Assistance Program for evaluation, diagnosis and development of a treatment plan consistent wifh generally accepted standards; and (2) the employee will be required to cooperate in the treatment plan, undergo unannounced periodic drug and/or alcohol screening for a period of up to 12 months, successfully complete the prescribed treatment, remain free of 03.10.04. DRUG.ALCOHOL. POLICY 2 drug and alcohol use, and sign an agreement consenting to said conditions. The unannounced periodic drug and/or alcohol screening provided for in this paragraph shall be done while the employee is on duty, provided, however, that if the employee was scheduled to work and has called in sick, he may be ordered to undergo such drug and/or alcohol screening. Failure to comply with these conditions of continued employment shall be cause for further discipline, up to and including discharge. 2. Second Positive -During Treatment. If an employee has a first confirmed positive test under the previous Paragraph 1 and enters a treatment program, and thereafter that employee has a subsequent confirmed positive test result while the employee is in treatment, as a resulf of unannounced periodic drug and/or alcoho! screening, the employee shall receive a ninety (90) day disciplinary suspension and shall be required to continue in treatment and comply with the other conditions of treatment set forth in the preceding paragraph. The appropriateness of the ninety (90) day disciplinary suspension shall be final and binding on the Union and the employee, and shall not be subject to the grievance procedure. Any confirmed positive test thereafter, either random, periodic unannounced or reasonable suspicion, shall result in the employee's discharge, which penalty shall be final and binding on the Union and the employee, and shall not be subject to the grievance procedure of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. 3. Second Positive -Reasonable Suspicion or Random. An employee who has a first confirmed positive test under Paragraph 7 of this Section D and who subsequently has a confirmed positive test under the random or the reasonable suspicion standard shall be discharged, which penalty shall be final and binding on the Union and the employee and the penalty shall not be subject to the grievance procedure in the Collective Bargaining Agreement. 4. Employment Status. There is no requirement on the part of the City to keep an employee on active employment status who is receiving treatment under this Section if it is appropriately determined by a physician and/or appropriately certified medical and/or psychological professional either that the employee's current use of alcohol or drugs prevents such individual from performing his duties or that his continuance on active status would constitute a direct threat to the property or safety of himself or others. Such employee shall be afforded the opportunity to use accumulated paid leave or take an unpaid leave pending treatment. F. Other Related Discipline. This section shall in no way limit discipline for offenses other than substance abuse, nor shall it limit the discipline to be imposed for selling, purchasing, possessing, using or delivering any illegal drug. 03.10.04. DRUG.ALCOHOL. POLICY 3 In cases of misconduct arising out of, related to, or aggravated by alcohol or drug abuse, the discipline imposed shall be based upon the extent, severity, and/or consequences of the misconduct. Except as provided in Paragraph 8 above, no employee shall consume any alcohol within 4 hours prior to reporting for duty. G. Costs of Testing and Rehabilitation. The City agrees to bear the costs of all testing ordered by the City, and of rehabilitation programs ordered by the City to the extent That they are not covered by the employee's health care provisions or insurance. The employee may be required to assist the City in coordinating benefits of insurance coverage. SECTION 2 -PROCEDURE. A. The Chief or his designee may order any employee to submit to an immediate test of his blood, breath and/or urine of any time he has reasonable suspicion to believe the employee to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while on duty, to have consumed alcohol while on duty without authorization, or to have illegal drugs in his system. The basis for the reasonable suspicion shall be documented and given to the employee in writing within twenty-four (24) hours of giving such test. If the results of the drug tests are negative the Association shall have the right to challenge whether reasonable suspicion existed for the ordering of the test. In addition, the Chief shall have the right to order random tests for the presence of alcohol or illegal drugs of all employees. A test for the presence of illegal drugs shall also be a part of any medical examination ordered by the City in connection with promotions, recall or the return to duty after leaves. All Pests ordered by the City shall be at the expense of the City. The refusal by any employee to submit to and complete any testing provided for under this Article, shall subject the employee to immediate discharge. Any employee who tests positive for the presence of illegal drugs shall be subject to discharge. Individuals consuming alcohol or having BAC of .04% or more while on duty shall be subject to disciplinary action as provided in Division 18.A of the Agreement. Employees ordered to submit to drug and alcohol testing shall promptly comply with the order. Employees who submit to such tests shall not be deemed to have waived or otherwise impaired their rights to grieve or otherwise contest any aspect of the testing as may be provided by law or this Ag-~eement. 03.10.04. DRUG. ALCOHOL. POLICY 4 Employees shall have the right to Association representation during the testing procedure, except during actual collection of the sample. The testing procedure shall not be unreasonably delayed due to unavailability of an Association representative. B. The City agrees That its testing procedure for the presence of drugs or alcohol shall conform to the following: 1. Use only a SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) certified or licensed laboratory to test body fluids or materials for drugs whose collection, handling, testing and preservation of sample and reporting are in accordance with SAMHSA standards. Breath tests ordered under this Section solely for disciplinary purposes shall be performed by a United States Department of Transportation (DOT) certified operator who is employed by an independent third party contractor which either operates or is affiliated with the SAMHSA certified laboratory selected for the blood and urine testing. All breath tests shall be done on a DOT certified breath analysis machine; 2. Establish a chain of custody procedure for both sample collection and testing that will insure the integrity of and identity of each sample and test result; 3. Collect a sufficient sample of the same body fluid or material to permit for an initial screening, a confirmatory test, and a sufficient amount to be set aside and reserved for later testing if requested by the employee. In the case of urine testing, it shall be a split sample; 4. Collect all samples in such a manner as to preserve the individual employee's right to privacy and insure a high degree of security for the sample and its freedom from adulteration. Employees shall not be witnessed while submitting a sample. Proper testing may be conducted to prevent the submission of a false or adulterated sample; 5. Confine any sample that tests positive in the initial screening for drugs by use of gas chromatography, with mass spectrometry or an equivalent scientifically accurate and accepted method that provides quantitative data about the drug metabolites. Confirm any positive breath alcohol screening test with a test of the employee's blood by use of gas chromatography or an equivalent scientifically accurate and accepted method; 6. Provide the employee tested with an opportunity to have an additional portion of the same sample tested by a licensed testing facility of his own choosing; 03.10.04. DRUG.ALCOHOL. POLICY 5 7. Require that the clinical laboratory report to the City through its Medical Review Officer positive results only in the case where both the initial and confirmatory test results are positive as to the same sample; 8. Provide each employee with a report of the confirmed positive results of each drug test that includes the types of tests conducted, the results of each test, the detection level used by the laboratory and any other information provided to the City by the laboratory; 9. Insure that all positive samples are maintained for a period of not less than 120 days to permit additional testing at the election of and the expense of the employee; 10. Insure that no employee is reassigned or subject to any discipline during any testing procedure pending the results thereof,• 11. If an alcohol test reveals that there is a concentration of 0.04% of alcohol in the employee's blood stream (alcohol concentration shall mean grams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood or grains of alcohol per 210 liters of breath), the employee will automatically be deemed "under the influence" of alcohol within the meaning of this Policy, and therefore, may be subject to discipline under this Policy; 12. The testing or processing phase for body fluids shall consist of a two-step procedure: (a) Initial screening test. (b) Confirmation test. 13. The body fluid sample is first tested using the initial drug screening procedure. An initial positive test result will not be considered conclusive; rather, it will be classified as "confirmation pending. " Notification of test results to the City shall be held unfit the confirmation test results are obtained; 14. A body fluid specimen testing positive will undergo an additional confirmatory test. The confirmation procedure shall be technologically different and more sensitive than the initial screening test; 15. Personnel utilized for testing will be certified as qualified to collect samples or adequately trained in collection procedures; 16. Concentration of a drug at or above the levels established by SAMHSA shall be considered a positive test result when using the initial immunoassay drug screening test. At the present time, those levels are: 03.10.04. DRUG.ALCOHOL. POLICY 6 INITIAL TEST Level - Nanogram/Milliliter (hereafter referred to as (ng/ml) Marijuana metabolite ...................................... 50 Cocaine metabolite ...................................... 300 Opiate metabolite ...................................... 300* Phencyclidine ...................................... 25 Amphetamines ...................................... 1000 apply.• *25 ng/ml ifimmunoassay-specific for free morphine. Concentration of a drug at or above the levels established by SAMHSA for confirmatory tests shall be considered a positive test result when performing a confirmatory Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectromotry Pest on a urine specimen that tested positive using a technologically different initial screening method: CONFIRMATORY TEST Marijuana metabolite ...................................... Cocaine metabolite ...................................... Opiates: Morphine ...................................... Codeine ...................................... Phencyclidine ..................................... . Level (ng/ml) 15* 150** 300+ 300+ 25 Amphetamines: Amphetamines ...................................... 500 Methamphetamine ................................ 500 * Delta-9- tefrahydrocannabinol-9-carboxylic acid '`'` Benzoylecgonine + 25 ng/ml if immunoassay-specific for free morphine 17. Where a positive result is confirmed, specimens shall be maintained in secured, refrigerated storage for at least a period of one hundred twenty (120) days; 18. For random drug tests, the following additional conditions shall (a) The City will contract with an independent third party to provide random selection services through use of a computerized random number generator program. The City shall specify the percentage of commissioned positions (which shall be at least 03.10.04. DRUG.ALCOHOL. POLICY 7 25%) that are to be tested annually, and the number of dates on which the body substance specimens are to be collected. The random number generator will then select the dates, the individuals to be tested on each date, and the shift (first, second, third or fourth) on which the collections shall begin. When the collection process begins on second, third or fourth shifts, the preceding shifts shall be processed on the following day. (b) To maintain the security of the selection system, the contractor shall deal exclusively with the Chief of Police or in his absence, the Acting Chief of Police, for purposes of notifying the City of testing dates and individuals selected, verifying and updating the pool and supplemental selection of individuals, if necessary. (c) Any employee selected who is on authorized time off which was applied for and approved prior to notice to the department of the date of the test shall be required to report to the collection site on his/her first day back from pre-approved leave. Any employee who requests leave of any type after fhe department has been notified of the testing date shall be required to report to the collection site on the shift he would otherwise have been required to report unless he is excused by the Chief of Police for good cause shown. Any employee so excused shall be required to report to the collection site on his first day back to work. (d) When an employee is selected in the random process, he/she shall promptly report to the appropriate collection site upon the direction of his/her commanding employee or supervisor. He/she shall provide specimens of urine sufficient to allow for "split sample" collection and processing of the specimens. He/she shall also supply a breath sample sufficient for a breath alcohol test. In the event that the breath sample registers a breath alcohol reading of .04 or greater, the employee shall also submit a blood sample sufficient for a confirmatory blood alcohol test. C. The City agrees to maintain all records concerning drug problems of its employees, including all records pertaining to City required drug tests, in the utmost confidence, subject to legal discovery. If the City receives a discovery request for any records regarding drug problems of an employee and it decides to comply with that request, it shall notify the employee prior to releasing any of the records. Excepf when required pursuant to legal discovery, no records concerning the drug problems of any employee shall be released to other employers or agencies without written permission of the person whose records are sought. 03.10.04. DRUG. ALCOHOL. POLICY 8 SECTION 3 -EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM The City shall establish an Employee Assistance Program to assist employees who are experiencing personal problems which the employee believes may be affecting his job performance. This program is available fo all employees, and employee participation in the Employee Assistance Program shall be voluntary, confidential, and not used for or considered in matters relating to performance evaluation, discipline or promotions. Participation in the program shall not be used as an excuse for poor job performance or discipline. 03.10.04. DRUG.ALCOHOL. POLICY 9
