Probable Cause Testing Sample Clauses

Probable Cause Testing. An Individual Employer may require an Employee to submit to a drug test as provided for in this Policy if it has probable cause that the Employee is impaired, intoxicated, and/or under the influence of a drug. Probable cause must be based on a trained Management Representative's (preferably not in the bargaining unit) objective observations and must be based upon abnormal coordination, appearance, behavior, absenteeism, speech or odor. The indicators shall be recognized and accepted symptoms of intoxication or impairment caused by drugs or alcohol and shall be indicators not reasonably explained as resulting from causes other than the use of such controlled substance and/or alcohol (such as, but not by way of limitation, fatigue, lack of sleep, side effects of proper use of prescription drugs, reaction to noxious fumes or smoke, etc.). Probable cause may not be established, and thus not a basis for testing, if it is based solely on the observations and reports of third parties. The trained Management Representative's observations and conclusions must be confirmed by another trained Management Representative. The grounds for probable cause must be documented by the use of an Incident Report Form (see Form "B" attached). The Management Representative shall give the Employee a completed copy of this Incident Report Form and shall give the Union Representative, if present, a copy of the Incident Report Form before the Employee is required to be tested. After being given a copy of the Incident Report Form, the Employee shall be allowed enough time to read the entire document and to understand the reasons for the test. The Management Representative also shall provide the Employee with an opportunity to give an explanation of his/her condition, such as reaction to a prescribed drug, fatigue, lack of sleep, exposure to noxious fumes, reaction to over-the-counter medication or illness. If available, the Union Representative shall be present during such explanation and shall be entitled to confer with the Employee before the explanation is required. If the Management Representative(s), after observing the Employee, and hearing any explanation, concludes that there is in fact probable cause to believe that the Employee is under the influence of or impaired by, drugs or alcohol, the Employee may be ordered to submit to a drug test.
