Security Background Checks. SECTION 41.1 All employees shall be subject to security background checks at any time. The Employer shall provide the Union prior notice that a background check will occur. An employee shall cooperate with an Employer as necessary for obtaining security background checks. Any employee who refuses to cooperate shall be subject to appropriate action. Employees who fail such security background check shall be subject to appropriate action. SECTION 41.2 For the purpose of this provision, just cause to terminate an employee who has failed a security background check exists only if it is established that one or more of the findings of the background security check is directly related to his/her job functions or responsibilities, or that the continuation of employment would involve an unreasonable risk to property or to the safety or welfare of specific individuals or the general public or constitute a violation of any applicable governmental rule or regulation. The amount of time elapsing since a criminal conviction will be considered a significant factor in determining just cause for termination of an employee. If the customer determines that the employee has failed a security background check, but the Employer lacks cause for termination under this provision, the terms of Article 42 (Involuntary Removal) shall apply. SECTION 41.3 All security background checks shall be confidential, and may be disclosed only to the Union as necessary for the administering of this Agreement and/or as required by law. The Employer shall pay all costs of any security background checks, except with respect to new hires.
