Random Testing. The random test employee group shall be the aggregate of all employees who hold a valid Commercial Driver’s License (C.D.L.) including regular drivers, substitute drivers and mechanics. The minimum annual percentage rate of random testing shall be 25% of the average size of this group annually for alcohol testing and 50% for controlled substance abuse. The random selection process shall insure that each employee shall have an equal chance of being tested each time selections are made. The employer shall ensure that random drug tests are unannounced and that the dates for administering these tests are spread reasonably throughout the calendar year. Upon notification each driver must proceed to the test site immediately or, if performing safety-sensitive functions, as soon as possible. If testing is required, drivers will be given one hour of paid time at the employee’s hourly rate for the testing process. (To be reviewed annually.) Drivers will be tested just before or just after the performance of safety-sensitive functions.
