Test to be Conducted Sample Clauses
The "Test to be Conducted" clause defines the specific tests or evaluations that must be performed under the agreement. It typically outlines the type, scope, and standards of the tests, as well as who is responsible for conducting them and under what conditions. For example, it may require a product to undergo safety or performance testing before acceptance or delivery. This clause ensures that all parties are clear on the testing requirements, helping to verify compliance with agreed-upon specifications and reducing the risk of disputes over product or service quality.

Test to be Conducted. In conducting the testing authorized by this Contract, the City shall comply with the following:
a) The lab performing drug tests shall be federally certified to do drug testing. The facility collecting and testing breath specimens shall hold all legally necessary licenses and be agreed to by the Union.
b) Collection of breath and urine samples shall be conducted in a manner which is consistent with HHS guidelines. Strict chain of custody procedures which are consistent with HHS guidelines must be followed for all samples. The Union and the City agree that the security of the specimens is absolutely necessary. Therefore, the City agrees that if the chain of custody of a sample is broken in any way, any positive test shall be invalid and may not be used for any purpose.
c) Urine specimens shall be collected in private, except in the circumstances described in 49 C.F.R. §40.25(e)(2), or as set forth herein.
d) A split urine sample shall be collected in all cases of drug testing for an independent analysis in the event of a positive test result. All urine samples must be stored and preserved in a manner that conforms to HHS guidelines.
e) Employees have the right for a Union representative to be present during any pre- collection interviews of employees intended to determine whether reasonable suspicion exists, but the exercise of such right shall not unreasonably delay the collection of the sample. For alcohol tests, "unreasonable delay" means twenty (20) minutes or more; for drug tests, "unreasonable delay" means two (2) hours. Prior to submitting a urine or breath specimen, the employee will be required to sign a consent-refusal form and will be subject to discipline for refusing to sign such a form; provided, an employee's refusal to consent is not a waiver of any objection to the test the employee would otherwise have.
f) The City's drug testing lab will confirm any urine sample that tests positive in initial screening for drugs by testing a portion of the same sample by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). All positive confirmed samples and related paperwork must be retained for at least twelve (12) months or (provided written notice is given the lab by the City or Union, before the expiration of the twelve (12)- month period) for the duration of any grievance, disciplinary action or legal proceeding, whichever is longer.
g) The City will provide employees who test positive for alcohol or drugs with an opportunity to have the split urine or blo...
Test to be Conducted. In conducting the testing authorized by this Agreement, the Employer shall:
a) Use only a clinical laboratory or hospital facility that is mutually agreed upon by the Employer and the Union.
b) Establish a chain of custody procedure for both sample collection and testing that will ensure the integrity of the identity of each sample and test result;
c) Collect a sufficient sample of the same body fluid or materials from an officer to allow for initial screening, a confirmatory test and a sufficient amount to be set aside reserved for later testing if requested by the officer;
d) Collect samples in such a manner as to ensure a high degree of security for the sample and its freedom from adulteration. Collection shall only be done by properly licensed organizations or individuals who are not Employees of the County of XxXxxxx, and shall be conducted off- site. Breathalyzer testing shall be conducted so as not to embarrass the Employee.
e) Confirm any sample that tests positive in the initial screening for drugs by testing the second portion of the same sample by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GCMS) or an equivalent or better scientifically accurate and accepted method that provides quantitative data about the detected drug or drug metabolites; Provide the officer tested with an opportunity to have the additional sample tested by a clinical laboratory or hospital facility of the officer's own choosing, at the officer's own expense provided the officer notifies the Employer within seventy-two (72) hours of receiving the results of the tests;
f) Require that the laboratory or hospital facility report to the Employer that a blood or urine sample is positive only if both the initial screening and confirmation test are positive for a particular drug. The parties agree that should any information concerning such testing or the results thereof be obtained by the Employer inconsistent with the understandings expressed herein, the Employer will not use such information in any manner or form adverse to the officer's interests;
g) Require that with regard to alcohol testing, for the purpose of determining whether the officer is under the influence of alcohol test results that show an alcohol concentration of .041 or more based upon the grams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood shall be considered positive and conclusive evidence that the Employee is under the influence. If a test is greater than 0.0 but less than .04 the officer shall be conclusively presumed n...

Test to be Conducted. The Employer shall use only a clinical laboratory or hospital facility that is licensed per the Illinois Central Laboratory Act, which laboratory shall comply with all NIDA standards. The Employer shall establish a chain of custody procedure to insure the integrity of samples and test results, and shall not permit the employee or any other bargaining unit member to be a part of such chain. Sufficient samples shall be collected so as to permit an initial, a confirmatory, and a subsequent test to be arranged at a facility of the employee's choosing. Confirming tests shall be Gas Chromatography, plus Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) or an equivalent scientifically accurate test.
