SUBSTANCE ABUSE TESTING PROGRAM. The Union and the AGC of Indiana, Inc. (AGCI) and/or signatory Employer, hereby agree that the drug testing program set forth in the Indiana Union Construction Resource Center Substance Abuse Policy ("Policy") is incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this Agreement. The Trustees of the Indiana Union Construction Industry Substance Abuse Trust Fund ("Fund") shall have the authority to amend the terms of the Policy to which employees working under this Agreement will be subject. The Administration of the Policy will be funded by contributions to the Fund. The Trustees of the Fund shall have the authority to determine the amount to be contributed by signatory Employers to defray the cost of the Policy. The Trustees may set the contribution at any rate up to ten cents ($.10) per hour depending on the Trustees' assessment of the amount needed to fund the Policy adequately to fulfill its purposes. Once the rate has been set, the Trustees may adjust the rate of contribution from time to time within the parameters set forth above, provided the Trustees give the Employer(s) at least sixty (60) days notice of any such adjustment. It is agreed that the Employer contribution to the Fund is not part of the wage/fringe package under this Agreement, but is instead a separate additional contribution made by the Employer solely to fund the Policy. Accordingly, the establishment or adjustment of the rate of contribution by the Trustees shall not affect the wage rates or the amounts set forth for contributions to fringe benefit funds under this Agreement. By entering into this agreement, the Employer and the Union hereby agree that there will be no fees or charges of any kind for the collection and payment of the hourly contributions to the Indiana Union Construction Industry Trust.
