Polygraph Examination. All polygraphs shall be voluntary. A refusal to submit to a polygraph shall not be held against the employee in a personnel investigation. If the employee under investigation is requested to submit to a polygraph examination, he or she will be furnished a written list of questions to be asked sufficiently prior to the examination to enable the member to confer with an MSLEA representative and/or counsel prior to the polygraph examination. An employee who submits to a polygraph examination as requested by the employer, may, at his/her own expense, obtain an independent polygraph and submit the results for consideration by the employer under the condition that this independent polygraph is performed by an individual licensed and certified by the State of Maine to conduct such examinations.
