Substance Tests Sample Clauses
The "Substance Tests" clause establishes criteria or procedures to determine whether a particular item, transaction, or entity meets certain substantive requirements, rather than merely formal or superficial ones. In practice, this clause may require parties to demonstrate that an arrangement has genuine economic purpose or real-world effect, such as verifying that a transaction is not solely for tax avoidance or regulatory circumvention. Its core function is to ensure that only arrangements with legitimate substance are recognized, thereby preventing abuse of formalities and upholding the integrity of the agreement or regulatory framework.

6. Employees who test positive for one or more drugs based upon the confirmation test will be given an opportunity to have a portion of the sample retested by a reputable chemical laboratory at City expense.
