Common use of PRE-EMPLOYMENT PHYSICAL EXAMINATION Clause in Contracts

PRE-EMPLOYMENT PHYSICAL EXAMINATION. All applicants selected for employment, including those who have left county employment and return, must satisfactorily complete a pre-employment physical examination. The examination will be scheduled at a location designated by the County and will include a test for detection of illegal drugs. If the drug test is positive, the applicant will not be employed. The applicant may, however, elect to have a retest of the original (or split sample), for which they will be required to pay 100% of the cost. If the second test is negative, the County will reimburse the test cost to the applicant and the applicant will be eligible for employment. All applicants must submit completed physical examination forms to the Human Resources Division before beginning work. A bargaining unit employee may obtain a copy of the documents relating to the employee's annual physicals contained in the employee's medical file within the County's Wellness Center. The copies will be provided to the employee within a reasonable period of time after the employee pays the applicable copying costs at the rate of one dollar ($1.00) per page. Other documents in the employee's personnel file are available to the employee under the provisions of Chapter 119, Florida Statues.
